The Officer knew the store was closed but, saw two suspicious subjects lurking around and soon noticed both going in a broken window. As more officers responded to attempt to catch the would-be thieves in the act, one suspect fled,, but we did catch the second one as he crawled out the window.

As pictured above, there was a significant amount of both cigarettes and alcohol that had already been stolen and was found in our suspect’s nearby vehicle as well as more that was stacked up and waiting to be taken when the burglars were caught in the act! All totaled, the stolen property was in excess of $20,000 and was returned to the owners. As for our burglar, he didn’t get what he came for, but did get a ride from us to the county jail
