Sisters burglary under investigation

Sisters deputies with the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office are investigating a burglary that occurred over the weekend in a neighborhood off East Cascade Avenue just east of Sisters Elementary School.

Lt. William Bailey told The Nugget, “We are investigating a burglary on Cottage Lane that was believed to have occurred overnight on August 7.”

Lt. Bailey said that the burglary was believed to have occurred while the residents were asleep in the residence.

“They contacted us later that morning after they realized it had occurred,” Bailey said.

The residents realized the burglary had occurred because they discovered that something was missing from the house, Bailey told The Nugget.

The lieutenant told The Nugget that it is too early in the investigation to determine the exact circumstances of this particular incident, but he urged residents to be mindful of security as a matter of routine.

He said that residents should always lock their house and secure vehicles overnight and close garage doors to prevent easy access.
