On 6/23/15 members of District 14 Detective Bureau and the Community Policing Unit through an investigation were able to recover 33 appliances from a storage unit in West Palm Beach valued at approximately $19,000. All of the property appears to be stolen. We were able to recover several appliances belonging to two Habit for Humanity homes located within the City of Lake Worth and also from two other burglaries in unincorporated Palm Beach County. We are still attempting to identify the owners of the remaining appliances to other burglaries in the City of Lake Worth and Palm Beach County. An arrest has been made in this case and others are forthcoming.
