Juab County Sheriff’s Office responded to three burglaries in October.
One of those occurred on October 9 south of Nephi and two occurred on October 10 in Mona.
“The burglars were focusing on constructions sites,” said Juab County Sheriff Alden Orme.
The items taken were tools, air compressors, nail guns and other items used in construction.
“The suspects are believed to be involved in other burglaries in Nephi and Santaquin that occurred around the same time,” said Orme.
These cases are still under joint investigation with Nephi City Police Department and Santaquin City Police Department.
Those who might have any information concerning any of these burglaries are encouraged to please contact Deputy Brent Pulver with the Juab County Sheriff’s Office at 435-623-7425 ext 4004.
“I would encourage Construction Companies to take extra precautions at their construction sites. Please contact the Sheriff’s Office for advice with extra security measures,” said Sheriff Orme.
