Deputies are still searching for people who may have had things stolen

Detectives are still looking for people who may have had hunting rifles or gear stolen from the Tieton Reservoir area. A press release from the Sheriff's Office says Deputies on Monday were called to the Tieton Reservoir Road when a hunter reported his rifle stolen from his hunting camp. The hunter was driving around and found a 2005 Mercedes parked at a campsite. He was able to see his stolen rifle in the vehicle. He didn't take any action and instead called authorities with the information.
A short time a Deputy driving along Highway 12 spotted the suspect vehicle and stopped and detained the two people inside the vehicle. While speaking with the man and woman they admitted to stealing rifles and camping gear from multiple locked and unlocked vehicles in the area.

Deputies found stolen items at the camp site that could belong to you

Deputies then found the couple's campsite and could see inside a tent multiple firearms, tools, a chainsaw, and binoculars. With the help of the hunter, Deputies were able to solve 6 theft cases, recover 10 firearms, and some hunting/camping gear.
Authorities say the man and woman admitted to driving from the west side of the State to specifically steal from hunters.

The suspects are sitting in the Yakima County jail

They were arrested and booked into the County Jail on theft, possession of stolen property, theft of a firearm, possession of a firearm, and unlawful possession of a firearm since both are not allowed to possess firearms.
Officials from the Yakima County Sheriff's Office say this is another reminder to not leave firearms in unattended vehicles. If anyone had firearms or hunting gear stolen in the past week, please email justinp@co.yakima.wa.us. or call the Yakima County Sheriff's Office at 574-2500.
