Crime Stoppers

Car burglaries Daughtery and Hilltop are of Lakeland

Nov 8, 2020
Media Contact : Brian Bruchey, PIO

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office is investigating multiple car burglaries in the area of West Daughtery Road and Hilltop Lane in Lakeland.

The burglaries occurred in the late night/early morning hours between November 7th and 8th (Saturday into Sunday).

All of the vehicles that were burglarized were unlocked, which allowed the burglar easy access.

The PCSO obtained security video which showed the suspect as he was attempting to get into a truck, just before 4:00 am.

After reviewing the video, the suspect appears to be a thin male wearing two different types of shoes, and in possession of a small girl’s bicycle.

If you recognize this man, or you have other information that may be helpful to this investigation, please contact Detective Colletti at 863-577-1631.
Or if you wish to remain anonymous, you can contact Heartland Crime Stoppers:
* Call 1-800-226 TIPS (8477)
* From your cell phone, dial **TIPS
* Or visit the website www.heartlandcrimestoppers.com and click on "Submit A Tip,"
* Or download the free "P3tips" app on your smartphone or tablet.

You will always remain anonymous when you send a tip through Crime Stoppers and you are eligible for a cash reward if your information leads to an arrest.suspect photo
