Recently, the city of Oxford, Miss. has experienced a type of burglary like no other — four residential burglaries have been reported in which the underwear of five female victims was stolen.

The locations of these robberies were spread throughout the city: one west of town, two south and the last close to the Square. At this time, the names of the victims cannot be released, due to the burglaries remaining under investigation.

Fortunately, none of these women were at home during the time of the robberies, so there is no way for police to know whether the suspect(s) was armed or not. However, the Oxford Police Department is asking for the cooperation of the public in catching the suspect(s). They advise all citizens to make sure that all doors and windows of their homes are locked at all times, and to be aware of their surroundings, and accordingly report any suspicious activity.

Any suspicious activity or persons should be reported to the police immediately.
