The Cherokee Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help in identifying two burglars suspected in at least three commercial break-ins.

The suspects broke into Tri-County Pawn in Woodstock on Saturday morning and stole approximately $10,000 in jewelry and electronics.

Before the burglary, the suspects disabled the alarm system and then cut a hole in the wall of the business where they made their entry.

The suspects removed video surveillance tapes inside the business, but a secondary video-security system was able to record the suspects inside the pawn shop.

It appears the suspects are white men, possibly in their late teens or early 20s, wearing black clothing and gloves.

Detectives said the same suspects are likely responsible for two additional commercial burglaries in Cherokee County.

In July, the Macedonia Super-Thrift in Canton was burglarized after suspects cut a hole in the wall of the building.

In August, suspects attempted an entry through the wall of Pannell's Gun Shop in Woodstock, but were unsuccessful.

Anyone who has information about these thefts or recognizes the suspects from the surveillance video is asked to call the sheriff's office Criminal Investigation Division at (770) 928-0239.
