Deputies investigate rash of burglaries in Miami County

MIAMI COUNTY, Ohio —

Deputies in Miami County said they have seen an increase in residential burglaries.

Investigators said the thieves are in and out of the houses in a minute of two, and long gone before deputies can get to the house on a burglar alarm.

According to deputies, residents need to look out for each other. So far in southwest Miami County, dozens of homes have been burglarized and thousands of dollars worth of jewelry and some electronics have been stolen.

Deputies said a license plate number would be helpful, but they do not want residents to jeopardize themselves trying to obtain the information.
