Police Chief Wants Armed Robber Stopped
By Emily Matesic
Pulaski police are investigating a string of weekend burglaries. Two businesses in the 100-block of West Pulaski Street and one on North Wisconsin were hit -- Classics Hotel and Saloon, Sassy's on the Strip, and 1st Premier Auto Repair.
The burglar entered each business through a window and stole cash.
"The spaces that are being crawled through are fairly small," Pulaski Police Chief Randal Dunford said.
It's a crime spree that has Chief Dunford concerned. "We believe they're more than likely related just based on the occurrence so close together."
These happened less than a month after a gunman held up a BP convenience store on Karcz Drive.
But the chief doesn't think the same person behind the burglaries is responsible for the October 12th armed robbery.
Surveillance cameras captured images of the armed robber, who's since been connected to two other convenience store hold-ups in neighboring Oconto County on September 25th and October 30th.
"We have confirmed that just based on the surveillance tapes and so forth, so we're working very closely with the Oconto County Sheriff's Department and their investigation, and that investigation is progressing forward," Chief Dunford said.
The task now is to identify the robber and bring him to justice.
"There's no doubt in my mind that he's not going to do it again. He will. He'll continue to do it until we catch him and we'll catch him."
The Pulaski Police Department has received tips and is following up on leads, but the chief tells us it's the community that's going to help them solve these crimes.
"They're our extra eyes and ears out there, and without their involvement our jobs get very, very difficult."" Crime Spree Concerns Pulaski Police Chief - WBAY-TV Green Bay-Fox Cities-Northeast Wisconsin News:
