(KAIR)--A Wednesday afternoon Mayetta theft sent two Texas residents to jail.
That’s according to Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, who says his office was called around 3:00 Wednesday afternoon regarding a theft at Mayetta’s Dollar General.
Two people reportedly stole a scanner, printer, and a cell phone from an ice vendor who was at the store, with the pair also believed to have allegedly caused a disturbance earlier in the day at the Holton Walmart.
Traveling on a black motorcycle, the duo was located by the Kansas Highway Patrol about 30-miles south of Topeka, on the Kansas Turnpike, following a Jackson County search assisted by the Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office.
They are identified as 47-year-old Jason Mathes and 34-year-old Stephani Rodriquez.
The pair was arrested and booked into the Jackson County Jail.
