Dozens of burglaries in northern Wisconsin may have been solved.

Authorities in Wisconsin and Minnesota report they've arrested seven people regarding those 64 burglaries and four arsons in the past year.

According to Lincoln County Sheriff Tom Koth, those in custody conspired to break into remote cabins in Lincoln and Oneida counties and steal property.

Officials say searches conducted in Dunn County and in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, recovered a wide array of items, including 13 firearms, computers, and sporting goods.

Those arrested are from Merrill, Tomahawk and Rhinelander.
