(KAIR)--A possible burglary is investigated by Atchison County authorities following the reported disappearance of nearly $6,000 from a rural residence.

Sheriff Jack Laurie says Jeffrey Wayne Norris reported the possible burglary and theft Thursday.

He told investigators the home, located at 17360 286th Road had not been broken into, and nothing besides the $5,800 was missing or out of place.

Norris informed the investigating Deputies that the money was taken sometime during the past two months, but he was unsure of an exact date, and did not know who might be responsible.

No suspects are yet developed, and Laurie says the investigation is continuing.
