RACINE —The Racine County Sheriff's Department is searching for suspects involved in a number of home and vehicle burglaries overnight.

The sheriff's department said it received numerous complaints of burglaries, stolen vehicles and thefts from vehicles in the village of Rochester.

It started about 3:17 a.m. Sheriff's deputies said the suspects found unlocked vehicles and were able to use the garage door openers inside the vehicles to get inside the homes.

Two vehicles were also stolen and have not yet been recovered.

Deputies also released two photos of surveillance footage showing the alleged suspects. Anyone with information is asked to call Investigator Spranger at 262-636-3367.
