A daylight home burglary near Westminster

A day-time home burglary near Westminster is being investigated by the Oconee Sheriff’s Office, with help from family members of the victim. The burglary occurred late yesterday morning on Wisteria Drive near U-S 76. According to the investigating officer’s report, a family member reacted quickly yesterday by removing the keys from the ignition of a suspect vehicle left on the property. At one point, the Westminster police had set up a perimeter around the home, but the intruder or intruders got away—apparently through a back door.
