WAUKESHA - Over the past two
weeks, at least seven buildings have been reported damaged
by BB guns or pellet guns.
Waukesha Police Capt. Mark Stigler reported that seven
buildings, including businesses, were damaged between May 12
and May 23.
"These incidents are hurting average citizens at a
time when they can least afford to pay for senselessly
damaged windows. Most of these costs are paid out of pocket
by the victims due to insurance deductibles. We need the
public’s help to solve these incidents and to stop future
incidents," Stigler wrote in an e-mail.
Windows were reported damaged at Master Z’s Dart and
Pool Supply, 1005 Spring City Drive; Dillaber’s Locksmith
Services, 829 W. College Avenue; and McDonald’s, 1425 S.
West Ave. Homes in the 300 block of Greenfield Avenue, 200
block of South Moreland Boulevard and 400 block of East
College Avenue were also reported damaged.
The Waukesha Police Department asks that if someone
observes a person driving in a white pick-up truck, acting
suspiciously or shooting out windows, call the department at
524-3831 or Crime Stoppers at (888) 441-5505 for a possible
cash reward.
