Burglary

MANTI -- Authorities were pushing Wednesday for attempted aggravated homicide charges against a survivalist suspected of burglarizing dozens of remote Utah cabins where he stayed while eluding capture for six years.

WEST POINT — Following a rash of burglaries — which included the theft of a shotgun — officers are once more asking residents to lock their vehicles, keep valuables out of sight and to shut garage doors.

Thieves took from vehicles almost anything in plain sight, including a Benelli shotgun, purses, wallets and sunglasses, said Davis County Sheriff’s Sgt. Susan Poulsen.

“We need to keep things locked up, because we’re living in a different time,” Poulsen said.

The wallets and purses had Social Security cards, driver’s licenses, bank cards and credit cards in them.

Redding California police released this surveillance video of a bumbling and oddly dressed burglary suspect who threw a rock at the glass front door of a Kent's Market.

EDEN — The Weber County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the theft of about $2,000 in snowmobile clothing in a business burglary near Eden.

SANDY — Sandy police are searching for as many as three suspects who staged a home invasion burglary after one of them gained entry by posing as a police officer.

Police say a young man was at home alone when he heard a knock on the door around 7 a.m. Friday.

The victim told police a man at the door had a badge and said he was an officer working on an investigation.

After the victim let him in, he was overpowered and restrained by the initial suspect and by one or two other men who joined him.

WEST POINT — Car owners are being asked again to make sure their vehicles are locked and all valuables are out of sight or removed following several car burglaries in West Point over the weekend.
