According to the Haralson County Sheriff’s Office, three suspects who are accused of commercial burglary of a moving vehicle were apprehended as a result of many authorities cooperating.
The Randolph County Sheriff’s Office notified HCSO on Wednesday that a Penske truck that was possibly used in the break-in was spotted near a Bremen Walmart. The HCSO was informed that a commercial burglary had taken place in their jurisdiction.

Items from Randolph County, Alabama were discovered inside the truck on Thursday by HCSO officers using a search warrant. Masks, tools, and a tiny amount of methamphetamine were also discovered inside.
