of suspicious persons in the same general area. During the open
door check it was discovered that 3 TV’s, 2 guitars and tool kit had
been removed from their original location in the church and piled up
near one of the exit doors. Other units on duty responded to the
church and a search of the church was conducted but no persons were
found to be present.

had occurred at this same location on May 11, 2014. Deputies were
also aware of other recent church break-ins where suspects / persons of
interest had been developed. As Deputies were processing the
scene for evidence they observed a suspicious vehicle nearby.

suspects’ whereabouts.

department responded to 429 Martin in Greenville, OH where that person
was located and arrested; William A. Boyd Jr., age 41 of Greenville,
