GREENFIELD, Ind. -

If a picture is worth a thousand words, a home security video has turned out to be priceless for a Hancock County family.

Cameras at Dustin Davis' home captured two burglars ransacking his family's home.

"It disrupts your life. Your sense of security is gone," Davis said.

The two men are first recorded outside the Davises' home by exterior cameras. After climbing through a living room window, thieves spend more than 30 minutes grabbing everything they can carry. Strategically-placed interior cameras even recorded the thieves going up and down the stairs, carrying the family's belongings.

The video shows the burglars stacking their stash at the back door.

"With technology the way it is and social media and everything else, nine times out of ten you are going to get caught," Davis said.

"A picture is worth a thousand words," said Hancock County Sheriff's Captain Jeff Rasche.

So is home security video for investigators, who say just like the Davis break-in, the same kind of crime could be happening at a home near you.

"The same people that are doing these crimes in Hancock County are also doing them in Shelby County, Johnson County, Marion County and Hamilton County," Rasche said.
