Sisters police assisted Oregon State Police in foiling a burglary at an Indian Ford home Sunday, September 10.

According to police reports, the owners of the home on Deer Ridge Road came home that evening to find a strange car parked in their garage and lights on in the house. The homeowners called police on their cellular phone.

An OSP trooper responded to the call and Sisters police were dispatched as backup. Police reported that the trooper and Sisters officer searched the house and found three juveniles hiding in the residence.

They were allegedly armed with a .22 caliber revolver and a .380 automatic pistol.

All three juveniles were from California. Police reported that the vehicle they were driving proved to be stolen and was impounded. The juveniles were transported to Deschutes County juvenile detention where they were lodged on charges of first degree burglary, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, criminal trespass while in possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of a stolen firearm.
