Syracuse RV Business Burglarized
The Elkhart County Sheriff’s Department is asking for the public’s help in providing any information about burglaries that have occurred in the Syracuse and Elkhart areas.
At least two burglaries from RV businesses have been reported in the last week. Redwood RV, located at 72440 SR 13, Syracuse, reported the thefts of 15 flat screen TVs from RV units. Also, Southeastern Trailer Transport, 51818 SR 19, Elkhart, reported 5 to 6 televisions removed from their units.
ECSD detectives say the suspects are removing televisions from RVs that are parked at the businesses. The stolen TVs were manufactured by Toshiba, Magnavox, Hisense and Legend and range in size from 26 inches to 55 inches.
Area law enforcement agencies are being asked to monitor the situation and all serial numbers of the televisions have been entered so they will return as stolen when they are checked.
The ECSD is also encouraging citizens to contact them if they notice any suspicious activity around area businesses, if they know of anyone trying to get rid of TVs, or if they hear anything that may assist in the investigation. Patrols have already been increased in the areas of the businesses being targeted.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Elkhart County Sheriff’s Department at 574-533-4151.
