Wis. Burglar Targeted Homes Of The Recently Deceased

SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) — Sheboygan County sheriff's deputies say they've arrested a burglar who targeted homes of the recently deceased and their relatives.

Capt. Dave Adams says the 62-year-old man from rural Sheboygan Falls also burglarized homes where estate sales were being held and residences of people who were on vacation.

Deputies searched the man's property last week and say they found items that had been reported stolen over the past several years.
