It is believed that the Sheriffi’s department has broken up a ring that has been entering business houses in and around Sylva for the past several week.
Deputy Sheriff Deck Sutton and Mr. D.A. Monteith caught two boys, William Franklin and Walter Ashe, in the store of Monteith and Davis Thursday morning about 2:30. The boys entered the store from a rear window and opened the cash register, and while they were doing this the officer arrested them. This is the third time within the past two weeks this store has been entered.
Deputy Sutton says that he thinks that other arrests will follow soon.
