Eugene Police Department Conducts Multi-state Burglary Ring Arrests Targeting Wealthy Individuals of Asian Descent
Eugene, OR – On June 23, the Eugene Police Department’s Property Crimes Unit executed simultaneous arrests of burglary suspects at three different locations in Eugene: North Delta Hwy/Ayres Road, Franklin Boulevard/Agate Street, and the 700 block of E. 15th Avenue.
Six individuals were apprehended, all suspected of participating in a multi-state residential burglary ring that targets wealthy individuals of Asian descent, including business owners, doctors, and others.
