On Tuesday, September 24, 2024, at approximately 11:00 AM, officers from the Little Elm Police Department, in conjunction with the Wisconsin Department of Justice, executed a search warrant in the 800 block of Countryside Way, Little Elm. The operation was part of an ongoing investigation into a multi-state theft ring.
During the search, one occupant fled on foot but was quickly apprehended and is now facing a charge of evading detention, a Class A misdemeanor. Two other occupants voluntarily accompanied detectives to the station for interviews, though no charges are being pursued against them at this time.
Evidence related to the theft ring was collected during the search, but further details have not been released, as the case remains under investigation by the Wisconsin DOJ.
