The past few weeks, the Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office has been utilizing Intelligence Led Policing methods with other law enforcement agencies to curtail burglaries in our area. On Tuesday, February 12, 2019, we received information from the Sumner County Sheriff’s Office about possible stolen property being in a storage unit at 1775 S. George Washington Boulevard. Sedgwick County Sheriff detectives followed up on that information and discovered the storage unit contained property taken in multiple burglaries. Approximately $70,000.00 worth of property was returned to the rightful owners. The property returned ranged from power tools to golf carts. We have approximately $100,000.00 of property remaining. These items range from trail cameras to generators. We have not identified the owners of the remaining property.
The Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office asks for citizens to put their name on their property, record serial numbers, or place unique identifiers on their property. By doing this, you would assist any law enforcement agency in recovering your property in the event it was ever stolen.
