MADISON, Wis. — Madison Police say footprints in the snow indicate someone scoped out several vehicles and some homes on the city’s far west side before entering at least one garage early Thursday morning.
Officers were called to the 900 block of Tramore Trail off of N. High Point Road at about 3 a.m. Thursday for a residential burglary report. The officers saw tire tracks and shoe prints in the snow in that area, showing someone walked up to several cars that were parked on the block.
Police say the suspected thief or thieves were able to get into at least one garage in the area and one purse was reported stolen.
The incident is causing police to remind people once again to remove all valuable items from their cars when they get home and keep their vehicles locked.
Anyone with information about thefts in the area of Tramore Trail should call Madison Area Crime Stoppers at 608-266-6014 or leave a tip online at p3tips.com.
