(KAIR)--Stolen firearms, taken from a Cummings resident, didn’t remain missing for long following an investigation that led to the arrest of two, and to the recovery of the two weapons.

According to a release from Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, his office, Sunday night, received a report from the victim of the theft, which then turned into an investigation.

According to Laurie, that led deputies to arrest 18-year-old Michelle Molt and an unnamed 17-year-old boy, both of Cummings.

Laurie, in the report, says Molt was arrested for felony theft of a firearm, while the juvenile was arrested for felony theft of a firearm and criminal use of a weapon.

He was released to juvenile intake, following his arrest, while Molt was booked into the Atchison County Jail.

Both of the stolen firearms were recovered during the investigation.
