Four suspects involved in multi-car theft spree
Tuesday morning, the Adams County Sheriff's Office responded to a report of a vehicle crash in the Ritzville area. When they arrived, they found the car had just been stolen from Ritzville and they apprehended 21-year-old Miyah Lancaster of the Tri-Cities for possession of the stolen vehicle.
At the same time, the ACSO was notified by the Washington State Patrol about another stolen Ritzville vehicle that was being chased into Lincoln County where Troopers stopped and arrested the driver, 37-year-old Dexter Wallace of Othello.
Officers were kept busy with multiple other break-ins that morning, involving more stolen vehicles. One from Pasco was found in the Othello area parked on the road near Booker and Foley Road, and a homeowner called to report a break-in at their shop, with another vehicle stolen.
The ACSO, and other law enforcement agencies now say all these crimes are interconnected, and are still seeking the two other suspects who were involved. They are 25-year-old Tyler Schneider and 28-year-old Jamie Moran, both of Kennewick. They are pictured in our story. Anyone who may have information, is urged to call either (509) 659-1122 or (509)-628-0333. All leads can be confidential.
The investigation continues.
