Wichita police officers carried out a search warrant Monday at a property in southern Sedgwick County.  Police said it was the result of a months-long investigation into financial crimes involving a number of people in different jurisdictions.

A Wichita police SWAT team was working with Sedgwick County deputies, Derby police, and deputies from Harvey and Sumner counties.   They executed a search warrant on a property in the 7100 block of South 99th Street East, near Derby.   There were several buildings and homes on the property, and because of a large amount of stolen goods that were discovered, a number of officers were requested to help collect and process evidence.

Wichita police said the investigation deals with theft, fraud and other financial crimes committed in Kansas and Oklahoma.   The investigation is continuing and more details will be released at a later time.
