A man and woman were arrested Monday, April 25 accused of breaking into a man’s Hamersville garage and stealing various tools estimated to be worth more than $1,000.
Brian Boyd Jr. and Krystal Koller allegedly broke into a garage on Elm Corner Rd. in Clark Township between April 16 and April 23, taking off with DeWalt cordless power tools, batteries, a flashlight, a circular saw and various other pieces of work equipment.

Bond was set at $10,000 cash, surety or property for Boyd.

Great work by the police. Someone stole a large amount of tools from my sons home years ago and the sherif department wouldn’t help him get them back even though he knew who took them and where they were unless he had serial numbers from them all
