By KRISTA PRIMROSE, Times-Union Staff Writer-

Kosciusko County Sheriff's Department is investigating a third man in connection with two January theft arrests.

A warrant for Ryan Miller was issued in late January, though police have not yet been successful in serving it.

Miller allegedly is involved with the construction-site burglary ring that led to the arrests of Mark and Brian Slone in January.

Police recovered more than $60,000 worth of stolen constuction equipment, tools and building materials from the Slones' residences.

Miller allegedly was a house guest at Mark Slone's Diamond Lake residence.

According to a police press release, more items have been recovered at a Diamond Lake residence. It is unclear if the residence referred to is Slone's. No police were available for clarification.

The items recovered are from a residential burglary in early January of a home at 10488 W. CR 800N, Warsaw.

The theft investigation reportedly is ongoing in several surrounding counties and Kentucky.

The county has yet to press theft charges against the men. According to Kosciusko County Detective Travis Marsh, they are waiting to request charges until more information is gathered in this far-reaching investigation. [[In-content Ad]]
