Two juveniles and two adults were arrested Monday morning after a Reidland business was burglarized. Deputies with the McCracken County Sheriff’s Office responded at approximately 4:32 AM on July 22, 2024 to an alarm at a business in the 5000 block of Benton Road. Upon arriving at the business, deputies observed broken glass, but no suspects were still at the business. This business had been targeted in past burglaries and thefts.
During the investigation, deputies viewed security camera footage from the business. Deputies were able to gain description of four suspects as well as the vehicle they were using during the burglary.
A short time later, as deputies were circulating the Reidland area, a deputy located the vehicle suspected to be involved in the burglary. Ultimately, four individuals were located in the vehicle and arrested. Some of the items that had been stolen were located and able to be returned to the owner.
Due to the nature of the crime, the four suspects were charged with Engaging in Organized Crime, in an effort to obtain a more severe punishment. All four were also charged with Burglary 3rd Degree, Criminal Mischief 3rd Degree, and Possession of Burglary Tools.
The two adults, Dylan Morris, 19 years old of Benton, KY and Josiah Pace, 21 years old of Paducah, KY, were lodged in the McCracken County Jail. The male juveniles, ages 17 and 16, were both lodged in the juvenile detention center in Paducah, KY. Photographs of Morris and Pace are attached to this press release.
