Eaton County Sheriff's Office Delta Patrol Deputies arrested two males who had been driving a stolen car and had previously broken into several garages.

On April 25, just before 3:00 p.m. Deputies responded to the area of Webster Road near Old River Trail for a report of a suspicious vehicle and suspicious people in the area.

When Deputies arrived they saw two individuals run out of the garage belonging to a resident on Webster Road. The officers formed a perimeter and searched the area.

Deputies located and arrested two males, ages 17 and 14. The following investigation revealed that the suspects had been driving a stolen car and had previously broken into several other garages.

Deputies recovered stolen property, and illegal drugs that were in possession of one of the suspects.

The 17-year-old suspect from Grand Ledge is expected to be arraigned Wednesday afternoon. He has been charged with Home Invasion 1st Degree and Unlawfully Driving Away an Automobile.

The 14-year-old suspect’s identity is being withheld due to his age, but similar criminal charges have been requested for him through the Eaton County Prosecutor’s Office.
