Burglar Still on the Loose in Mediapolis

The town of Mediapolis is still dealing with a number of burglaries.

The Des Moines County Sheriff’s Department has been working hard trying to figure out who is behind all the car and home break-ins, but have not found the individual yet. There was a burglary arrest made last week but Sheriff Mike Johnstone says, it’s not the person they’re looking for…

Crime Stoppers is still offering a reward of up to $1,000 for any information that leads to an arrest. The Sheriff believes the burglar is a young male from descriptions he’s received, but has no further details because the man has only been seen at night.

Johnstone doesn’t think the man is violent but says to lock your cars, garages, and homes….

Johnstone says if you see anything suspicious, call right away.
