1. Have you dusted the house for fingerprints yet?
- Yes, the house was dusted for fingerprints yesterday. The police officer and the forensic team thoroughly searched the house for any potential fingerprints left by the intruders. They used a special powder that adheres to the oils and sweat on the fingertips, making the fingerprints visible. A black powder is usually used for light surfaces, while a white powder is used for dark surfaces. The powder is gently brushed on the surfaces and then lifted with a special tape or brush. The collected fingerprints will be compared to the ones in the police database to identify any potential suspects.

2. Have you found any evidence yet?
- Yes, a piece of material was found this morning. The forensic team discovered a torn piece of cloth near the point of entry. They carefully collected and preserved it in an evidence bag for further analysis. This piece of material might provide valuable clues about the burglar, such as the type of clothing they were wearing or any specific textile patterns that could lead to their identification.

3. Have you interviewed the house owners yet?
- Yes, they were interviewed last night. Detective Maguire and his team visited the house owners to gather information about the burglary. They asked questions about what they had noticed, if they had seen any suspicious individuals or vehicles in the area, and if they were missing any specific items. The interview helped the police gain a better understanding of the situation and allowed them to gather potential leads or identify any inconsistencies in the homeowners' statements.

4. Have you questioned the neighbors yet?
- Yes, they were questioned this morning. The police officer and Detective Maguire visited the neighbors to gather any information that could be relevant to the investigation. They asked if the neighbors had seen or heard anything unusual during the time of the burglary. This step is crucial, as neighbors often notice things that the homeowners might miss or overlook. The information gathered from the neighbors might help the police identify potential witnesses or narrow down the time frame when the burglary occurred.

5. Have you arrested any suspects yet?
- Yes, two men were arrested yesterday evening. Based on the evidence and information gathered during the investigation, the police identified two individuals as potential suspects. Detective Maguire and his team coordinated with other police units to locate and apprehend these individuals. The suspects were brought into custody for further questioning and to gather additional evidence that could link them to the burglary.

6. Have you interrogated the suspects yet?
- Yes, they were interrogated last night. After the arrest, the suspects were taken to the police station for questioning. During the interrogation, Detective Maguire asked them about their possible involvement in the burglary, their whereabouts during the time of the incident, and any other relevant information. The purpose of the interrogation is to extract details or admissions that could assist in building a solid case against the suspects or potentially uncover additional information that could help solve the burglary.

7. Have you recovered the stolen goods yet?
- Yes, they were recovered this morning. Detective Maguire and his team conducted a thorough search and investigation, which led them to recover the stolen goods. The police were successful in locating hidden compartments or safe houses where the burglars had concealed the stolen items. The recovered goods will be held as evidence and later returned to the rightful owners once the case is resolved.

8. Have you written your report yet?
- Yes, it was completed an hour ago. Detective Maguire meticulously documented every aspect and detail of the investigation in a comprehensive report. The report includes all the evidence collected, witness statements, interviews conducted, the timeline of events, and any other relevant information. This report is crucial for the case as it serves as an official record of the investigation and will be used during court proceedings if necessary.
