A string of burglaries in one county has landed six people in jail with the possibility of more on the way. While victims say they're happy about getting justice, they've also changed some of their habits.

One business owner we talked to put security cameras up right away. She says she's just glad she doesn't know the suspects, because that would have been even harder on her.

“I understand that we were probably very lucky since the person who broke in was not from right around here," says Mary Foss.

Mary Foss owns Beaches Corner Tavern near Ettrick. Over the past month and a half her bar and several other Trempealeau County businesses have been burglarized.

"It’s shocked everybody here," says Foss.

That’s along with more than 20 cars and few homes.

“As of today (Wednesday) we have six people in custody, at least five more people's names will be sent to the district attorneys office for charges, felony charges," says Sheriff Richard Anderson.

Trempealeau County Sheriff Richard Anderson says investigations led to the arrests of 25-year-old David Peaslee II, of Ettrick, 19-year-old Daniel Iverson of Black River Falls, 19-year-old Trevor Hieb of Black River Falls, 18-year-old Nicole Carpenter of Blair, 19-year-old Lonnie Wittaker of Viroqua and 18-year-old Jordan Kudrna of Taylor.

"There are at least five different groups that are not connected to each other, so it's not like one group of individuals that are targeting the whole county," says Sheriff Anderson.

Since the burglary, Foss has added security cameras and other layers of security to help protect her business but she and her neighbors have made personal changes as well.

"I have heard a lot of people say "jeepers," now I lock my doors at different times when people maybe didn't lock them," says Foss.

Sheriff Anderson says the best thing everyone can do is lock your doors in your cars and at home, no matter how safe you feel.

There are still unsolved burglaries and thefts in the area. If you have any other information, you're asked to call the Trempealeau county sheriff's department at 715-538-4509.
