Just after midnight on November 28, 2015, a resident returned to his home in the 1500 block of Rancho Casero Drive, Cornville, and discovered a burglary. The resident had been out of state for about 2 weeks leaving the home unoccupied.
According to authorities, it appears unknown suspects forced their way into the home by breaking out glass on the front door to gain access. While checking the bedroom, the resident discovered quite a bit of property had been stolen including 13 firearms (many are considered antique), collector coins, tools and jewelry.
