A rural Rose Creek man is missing more than $11,000 in riding lawn mowers, air compressor equipment and other materials.

Mower County Chief Deputy Mark May said the man reported a burglary at his storage shed at the 18000 block of 575th Avenue after he checked the shed Sunday morning.

Among the items reported stolen are a 2012 John Deer X540 valued at $7,000 and a 2012 John Deere Z445 valued at $4,400. Both riding lawn mowers have a 27-horsepower engine and a 54-inch deck. Also missing is a Huskie 30-gallon air compressor, a Baasch 30-gallon air compressor, a Lincoln welder and a 2012 5-foot by 8-foot trailer, with a serial number of ADED868. About 30 to 40 large tote containers were taken as well, though May said the victim hasn’t yet tallied the items inside the totes.

The victim believes his shed was broken into sometime this month. Anyone with information is encouraged to call sheriff’s deputies at 507-437-9400.
