Bates said between 6:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. that day, deputies ultimately responded to five separate addresses within the same area for four reported vehicle break-ins and one home break-in. He said various items were taken during the incidents, ranging from an assortment of power tools, hand tools, electronics, U.S. currency, jewelry, etc.
