Deputies said they were able to locate a suspect vehicle, which led them to a suspect, who was in jail on an unrelated charge after the burglaries.
An interview with that suspect led investigators to additional evidence related to the crimes, linking two people to the crimes the night of June 7.
Kayla Turk and Julius Riggs were both arrested and charged with burglary of a habitation and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. Neither received bail during their hearing.
