Sheriff Shane Jager says a total of seven reports were taken and some of the stolen items included firearms. The total loss from the burglaries is estimated at $1,800.
A passenger vehicle was identified in the area at the time of the burglaries. A photo of that car is available at NewsRadioKMAN.com.
