Authorities are looking for the person responsible for stealing electronic equipment from a home in December.
On Dec. 2, authorities responded to a report of a burglary in the 400 block of 15th Street South, Wisconsin Rapids Police Lt. Brian Krzykowski said. It looked like a person or people gained entry by forcing their way through a window.
The burglar took a black and silver Asus laptop computer, model no. X160, Krzykowski said. The computer had a 15.5-inch screen. The person also took a LG Splendor cellphone and an HTC One cellphone.
Authorities hope someone might have seen something suspicious in the area of the burglary or might have seen someone with the computer, Krzykowski said.
