Stolen property recovered from string of thefts in Sartell

On Tuesday, the police department got 10 reports for thefts of guns, GPS units, computers, credit cards and personal checks taken from vehicles and garages in the early morning hours.

In one theft, a side garage door was kicked in but most thefts occurred in vehicles that were left in driveways unlocked. From these unlocked vehicles, the garage door openers were taken and used to get into the garages. Items were then taken from the vehicles and garages, Sartell Police Chief Jim Hughes reported. Hughes reminds everyone to lock their vehicles and not to leave valuables inside.
