A weekend theft of batteries from a Phoenix storage site has authorities wondering if there's a link to a similar theft in Laveen in August.
AÂ total of 23 "group 31" batteries were taken from a site where heavy machinery was being stored, the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office said. The value of the batteries is estimated at $170 each.
Sheriff's investigators said the theft resembles one which occurred in Laveen during the weekend of August 24 in which thieves took 36 batteries from 12 of the Laveen Elementary School District buses. The batteries were described as CARQUEST brand "Farm & Commercial" batteries, also known as "Group 31 Batteries" Model: 31HDS30.
Thieves cut a chain link fence in both cases in order to gain access to the lots.
Sheriff's deputies said surveillance equipment shows a suspect vehicle, described as as a Buick or Mercury four-door sedan, with two-tone white and tan paint. The license plate is unknown.
Anyone with information about the burglaries is asked to call the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office at 602-876-1000.
