NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WECT) – The New Hanover County Sheriff's Office is looking for the person responsible for several storage unit thefts.

Approximately 10 breaking and entering crimes have occurred in New Hanover County in which multiple storage units had property stolen, according to Sheriff's Office spokesperson Sgt. Brewer. Similar incidents have been reported in surrounding jurisdictions.

Storage unit renters are encouraged to secure their units with heavy duty "disc" style locks. Brewer said these seem to be the most difficult to defeat.

Anyone with information regarding who may be responsible for these crimes or who can identify the individuals should call 910-798-4260 or 910-798-4200.
