(KAIR)--An engagement ring disappears after furniture is delivered to an Effingham residence; and when the investigation wraps up, a furniture delivery employee goes to jail.

The disappearance happened on August 15 of last year. “Investigators were able to get a hold of the furniture company and find out who the employees were who delivered the furniture,” Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie told MSC News.

Laurie who told MSC News the case concluded when the arrest was made in Topeka last week. “The [Kansas] Highway Patrol had encountered him, and they arrested him on our warrant, and we picked him up on it.”

Arrested on the warrant, which had been issued just days after the furniture was delivered, was Damion McClelland.

He had been delivering furniture on behalf of Topeka's Furniture Mall of Kansas at the time the ring disappeared.

Following his arrest, McClelland was booked into the Atchison County Jail on July 24, and faces a charge of theft.
