On 8/24/2021 Madison Police Officers responded to the 1000 block of Laurie Drive in the West District reference a burglary complaint. Two Madison juveniles, males aged 13 and 14 years old, were subsequently taken into custody for burglary.

Officers learned that the burglary had been interrupted by a neighbor who observed two juveniles enter into a neighbor's garage, with a third juvenile appearing to stay outside as a "lookout". When the neighbor went to confront the juveniles they fled the area. The victim reported that a vehicle in the garage had been entered by the suspects.
