Morrison County Sheriff Shawn Larsen states that their office received a report of a residential burglary in progress on 8-20-2018 at approximately 10:02 am, at a residence located off 370th Avenue, approximately 2 miles north of Hwy 27 in Richardson Township.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, the reporting party returned to the residence and witnessed a dark grey 4-door sedan with rust on the back fenders, small crack in the center of the windshield and black tape covering the rear license plate parked in the driveway near the house. The reporting party walked into the house and observed a male party standing in the living room, who was described as approximately 6’ 2” tall, 220 to 250 pounds, wearing a black ski mask, long sleeve black shirt, black gloves, black pants and black shoes with possibly a white Nike symbol on the outside of each shoe. The suspect pushed passed the reporting party and left the residence in the vehicle described above heading northbound on 370th Avenue. The reporting party was unsure about the make and model of the vehicle, but believed it was a mid-1990’s vehicle.
The Sheriff’s Office believes that the reporting party had interrupted a burglary in progress at the residence. The residence was unlocked at the time of the incident and it is believed that no items were taken.
