The Wilkes Sheriff's Office is investigating a list of thefts in the area. It's a list that include an antique rifle, a dog, and an air conditioner. A Purlear resident called this week concerning a break-in. They came home to find that a window was broken out. Someone entered their home and stole an antique World War II rifle. No other property was reported stolen. Then a property owner called about a theft from a house he owns on Old Brickyard Road. The owner went to check on some property he owns and found that the outside A/C unit had been stolen. That property is currently unoccupied. The unit was valued at 900 dollars. There are no suspects in either of those reports. Then a dog owner in Wilkesboro called about the theft of their Pitbull. They said the Pitbull was stolen from their front yard. A suspicious man was seen in the area earlier and Sheriff's Officials have a description of him. All the investigations are ongoing.
