Rosenberg Police Arrest 9 Suspects In Burglary Ring

ROSENBERG, TX — Nine suspects who were responsible for a slew of vehicle burglaries in Rosenberg and the surrounding area were arrested Wednesday, police said.

Officers were initially called to the Pecan Park Apartments at 1217 Westwood for several vehicle burglaries, and then dispatched to the Family Dollar store in the 5100 block of Avenue H for a burglary in progress.

According to a press release, the officers were pulling up to the store and saw several suspects running from a building. Police said the suspects used a stolen vehicle to crash through the front of the store to get inside.

Responding officers were able to capture nine suspects who are from Houston, and who will be charged with numerous counts of Burglary and Engaging in Organized Criminal Activity.
