PLAIN TWP. — Stark County Sheriff’s deputies said they nabbed two of three people they believe were involved in the burglary of a home Wednesday and found loot reported stolen during other crimes.
According to a release by the sheriff, events unfolded like this:
Deputies responded to reports of a burglary in progress in the 2500 block of Cathy Drive NE.
Witnesses said the suspects had a gun and fled the scene in a box truck. Deputies saw the truck headed east on 30th ST. NE and tried to stop it. The vehicle eventually stopped, but two men inside tried to run away.
