(KNZA)--Following what Brown County Sheriff John Merchant calls “many hours investigating criminal activity and following up on citizen concerns,” multiple arrests are made in surrounding states and “many thousands of dollars of stolen property” has been recovered.
That's according to a release Wednesday issued by Merchant, who says “over the course of the last few days, search warrants involving several different states and multiple locations in Kansas” led to the recovery of the stolen items. Additionally, Merchant says by his office sharing information with other agencies, and networking together, the arrests were made, clearing many of the open investigations in those out-of-area jurisdictions.
Once the local, Brown County investigation concludes, Merchant says additional information will be provided.
In the meantime, he's seeking area residents who may be missing items to help identify those recovered. Photos of the items are posted above.
Those who know the owners of any of the items should contact the Brown County Sheriff's Office at 785-742-7125.
