On December 21, 2022, Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office detectives with the help of Prescott Police Department detectives arrested William Chandler (31) of Prescott in connection with the recent string of burglaries that took place throughout Yavapai County.

In the early morning of 12/21/22, YCSO deputies were alerted to another burglary in the Paulden area. Once on scene, deputies found a vehicle that was left near the scene as well as items taken from the house that had been burglarized. During the investigation, it was learned that Chandler was the driver and temporary owner of the vehicle. After conducting several interviews, detectives determined that Chandler was the person of interest in the burglaries which include Prescott Valley, Prescott, Paulden, Clarkdale, and Cottonwood.

A warrant was executed at Chandler’s residence in the Prescott area. With the help of Prescott Police Department items of interest were recovered and Chandler was arrested without incident.

Sheriff Rhodes states, “There are few offenses more jarring than criminals violating the safety of our homes. I want to thank the community for their (your) diligence and the deputies for their (your) hard work in bringing these people to justice and restoring a sense of security for Christmas.”

  1. Thank you for your endless efforts to make our communities safer. Like always great job. God Bless & Merry Christmas!

  2. Thank you for what you accomplish. I have lived in Prescott for 35 plus years, and don’t remember the terrible things such as this happening until the last years. When the area grew so much, and so quickly, it was expected to happen.

  3. It is truly a pleasure to live in a community with such great and alert public safety personnel. Be it the sheriff’s department, Prescott Valley PD or Prescott, we are truly blessed to be in their care and area of response. Take care to all! Be safe in your travels and calls to duty.
