Each of the burglaries has occurred at Dollar General Stores and Dollar Tree Stores. Police are also investigating similar burglaries in Louisiana, Tennessee and Mississippi and are sharing information with Arkansas authorities. The State Police CID is providing investigative support and coordinating the sharing of investigative information among all law enforcement agencies.
