North Aurora Police Department Incident Alert: Ruse Burglary in 200 Block of Hill Avenue

The North Aurora Police Department is asking the community for assistance regarding an incident that occurred earlier this week.

On Monday, January 27 between the hours of approximately 1:30pm – 2:00pm a ruse burglary occurred in the 200 block of Hill Avenue. A ruse burglary can take many forms, but in this case the victim was lured outside of their home and stalled in their backyard by the suspect while another person(s) went inside of the victim’s home in an attempt to burglarize it. The suspect claimed to be working with a company that was doing outdoor work at a neighbor’s next door and needed the victim to look at something in their own yard.

The suspect vehicle in this incident is described only as a “nice looking grayish colored SUV.” The suspect the victim interacted with is described a light complexion male (possibly Hispanic or Eastern European) in his late 50s, approximately 5’6″ with a thin build, black/gray beard and teeth in overall poor condition with a noted missing upper central tooth.
