On Feb. 3, a St. Clair County deputy was dispatched to a residence on Cleveland Street, Lowry City, in reference to stolen property being located. Contact was made with Shawn Casey who stated some property which was recently stolen from him was in the bed of a black pickup truck parked at a residence. On Feb. 1 Casey reported several items missing from a barn at his property on A Highway where his house was recently lost due to a fire.
Casey said he was driving by the residence and noticed numerous burnt items belonging to him in the bed of the truck. He said some of the items were reported stolen and other items, he didn’t know were stolen. The black pickup truck was seized as evidence.
While on scene, a white pickup truck drove by with items in the back of it that Casey identified as stolen from him. The white pickup truck was located a short time later on NE D Highway near NE A Highway and a traffic stop was conducted. The alleged stolen items were no longer in the back of the truck.
Contact was made with the driver, Tallon Vaughn, 22, Lowry City, who had an active warrant for his arrest. Vaughn was arrested on a St. Clair County warrant for failing to appear in court on an original misdemeanor charge of exceeding the posted speed limit by 41- 45 mph. Bond was set at $450.50 cash only. The investigation is ongoing
