(KAIR)--Two Independence, Missouri residents are facing charges in Jackson County, Kansas, arrested Friday afternoon following a traffic stop.
That stop, initiated by a Kansas Highway Patrol Trooper after the suspect vehicle left a residence near 182nd and U.S. Highway 75 around 4:30, led to the discovery that both occupants had outstanding warrants.
That's according to a release from Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse, who says that shortly after the stop, “the homeowner of the residence where the vehicle had left, arrived home,” with the homeowner discovering “that the house had been burglarized.”
The release says that items missing from the home were allegedly found inside the duo's vehicle, which led the Sheriff's Office to conduct a burglary investigation.
Donald Biggs and Sheila Harrison, both 37-years-old, were then arrested, with Biggs facing charges of burglary, felony possession of stolen property, felony theft, and criminal trespass.
Harrison was arrested on charges of burglary, possession of stolen property, and theft.
Additionally, Biggs was found to have outstanding warrants from the Kansas counties of Leavenworth and Johnson, as well as the Missouri counties of Ray and Platte. Charges included in the warrants, according to the release, involve the crimes of burglaries, thefts, identity theft, and illegal drugs.
Following their Jackson County arrests, the pair was booked into the Jackson County Jail.
