GRAYSON COUNTY, Tex. ― An anonymous tip led Grayson County Sheriff's investigators to $80,000 worth of stolen property. Mark Van Paasschen has more.
The tip actually involved the location of a Jeep stolen from Cooke County back in 2005. When deputies arrived on the scene Monday, they found that Jeep, as well as two other stolen vehicles.
Investigators found those vehicles on the property of 57-year-old Barney Elza England, located on England Road east of Denison.
Mr. England was arrested and taken to the Grayson County Jail on theft of property charges.
Deputies recovered that Jeep stolen from Cooke County back in may of 2005, a horse trailer with sleeping quarters stolen from Durant in 2005, and a travel trailer stolen in November 2008 from a home near Whitesboro.
The estimated value of the stolen vehicles comes to about $80,000.
"They did discover the Jeep inside the barn. The VIN numbers had been taken off of it, which indicates that someone at that location was going to be selling that Jeep or stripping it down for parts to get rid of those parts as well," Sgt. Rickey Wheeler of the Grayson County Sheriff's Office said.
England was released from jail Tuesday on $2,500 bond. Deputies say the investigation is ongoing as they follow up on other leads.
