As you and your family are out enjoying the festivities of the holiday season, you are at risk of being a victim of theft in two major ways. The holiday season brings a significant increase in property theft crimes and identity theft crimes during this time of year.
 
A large number of home burglaries occur during the winter months when many homeowners are out-of-town for the holidays and the house is full of gifts received and to-be-given. Crooks will steal electronics and jewelry and even the presents under the tree.
 
“Everyone needs to make sure their homes are not an ‘easy mark’ for thieves determined to steal their holiday joy,” said Renee Carter, state director of the Alabama Insurance Information Service. "By taking some simple precautions, homeowners can prevent burglaries at this hectic time of year."
 
But in today’s technology driven society, the presents under the trees are not the only items at risk of being stolen.

BILLINGSLEY, AL (WSFA) - The Autauga County Sheriff's Office says they have arrested one Montgomery man and charged a second man in connection with a burglary spree in Chilton, Bullock and Autauga counties that led to a large scale manhunt in Billingsley.

On Wednesday, October 3, an off-duty Autauga County Sheriff's Deputy noticed a suspicious vehicle, a white Chevrolet 3500 pick-up truck at the U.S. Hwy. 82 Country Mart in Billingsley. The vehicle was possibly connected to several residences in Billingsley that had recently been burglarized - three men were inside the truck at the time.

The deputy approached the vehicle and noticed a large number of firearms and personal property in the truck and identified himself as a law enforcement official. A short struggle ensued and the three suspects fled the area on foot.
