Deputies Seek Help In Identifying Vehicle Related To Funeral Service Burglaries

August 10, 2011

Santa Rosa County investigators are seeking the public’s help in identifying and locating a vehicle that may have been involved in vehicle burglaries during a graveside funeral service last weekend.

The incident happened Saturday during a funeral service at Serenity Gardens Cemetery in Milton. When deputies arrived, they found that five vehicle burglaries had occurred while the owners were attending the funeral service only about 50 yards away.

Now deputies are working to identify a late model grayish green four-door Mazda Tribute with a Georgia tag seen at the Circle K at Dogwood Drive and Willard Norris Road in Milton shortly after the funeral service burglaries. The SUV was caught on camera as a credit card was used that was stolen during the burglary. Investigators need to speak with the individual in order to further the investigation.

Editor’s note: Earlier Wednesday, deputies were looking for the white pickup seen in the photos above. The truck was located and was not part of the incident.

Anyone with information concerning the burglaries is asked to contact Santa Rosa County Crime Stoppers at (850) 437-STOP or www.srccs.com.
