Sanger PD arrest burglary suspects
At approximately 1:44 a.m., on October 9, 2023, Sanger Police Department officers Pruett, Scott, and Trevino were dispatched to a reported burglary in progress on Heron Drive in the Sable Creek sub-division. The complainant informed officers that an unknown male wearing a dark hoodie was captured on their security camera attempting to burglarize their vehicle in the driveway.
According to a release by the Sanger Department, upon receiving the call, Sanger officers swiftly arrived at the location and established a perimeter with the collaboration of the Denton County Sheriff’s Office and the Pilot Point Police Department. Two individuals, previously known to the Sanger Police Department for late-night walks, were promptly located.
One of the subjects, who had been arrested in September 2022 for Burglary of a Vehicle and Evading Arrest, was detained. A third subject, wearing a black hoodie, was discovered concealed in the bushes south of the Butterfield Elementary playground. Initially apprehended for Attempted Burglary of a Vehicle, this subject later confessed to the actual burglary of at least one vehicle. The specific vehicle(s) have not been identified yet.
