Vermont state police says they've investigated 105 burglaries in Addison County, which is on track to meet or exceed last year's break-ins.
Police say they made a key arrest on August 1st when they found a number of stolen goods in 37-year-old Raymond Ritchie's home in Addison. So far 23 of the more than 100 victims have been able to recover their belongings.
WCAX-TV reports since arresting Ritchie, police said at a public meeting yesterday there have only been two reported burglaries in Addison County.
