Police in Tifton hope they're ending a string of burglaries. Police arrested 43-year old John Wesley Parks of Tifton for more than six break-ins.

Investigators believe Parks targeted homes and sheds... stealing everything from lawn mowers and leaf blowers to food.

So far police have only recovered one of the stolen items. Park is currently being held in Tift County Jail.
