An investigation into a rash of recent burglaries resulted in the arrest of a man suspected in at least nine incidents. Statesboro police arrested Shareef Jerome Mathis, 19, of Prince Way, who is charged with nine counts of burglary and one count of obstruction in connection to a number of burglary incidents occurring in the areas of South College Street, Vista Circle and Bruce Drive during the month of June, said Statesboro Public Safety Director Wendell Turner. During the times of the burglaries, police responded to the issue by increasing the presence of officers and enforcement in those areas.
