There are two suspects involved. One of them knocks on the door and identifies himself as working for a local power company. It appears that the suspect gets the homeowners to walk the property line away from the home. While the homeowner is distracted, a second suspect enters the home and steals items.

Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office is investigating three burglaries from the Towns of Jefferson, Concord, and Ixonia.

The suspects are described as being in their 30’s, 5’9-6’0 tall with dark hair and acne scars on their face. One of the suspects may speak with a Spanish accent.

The Dodge County Sheriff’s Office is requesting that citizens report anyone coming to their residence with a similar approach and story. If someone comes to your door claiming to represent any company, require them to provide a photo identification card, especially if they did not provide you with prior notice from the company.

Please remember to lock all of your doors when you are gone. This includes your garages, side entrances and vehicle doors.  If you think you have any information at all, including video from doorbell or security cameras please contact the Dodge County Sheriff’s Office. We will actively investigate all leads.  Deputies are continuing to actively patrol the area in search of the suspects.
