Officers arrived and discovered the suspect had broken into a handful of vehicles and garages in the area.

Officers used a K9 team and drone to search for the suspect, but were unsuccessful. Deputies searched for several hours, clearing multiple properties, outer buildings, ditches and thick vegetation. They later learned the suspect was possibly on a bicycle and believed to have left the area before the perimeter was established.
