Five men were recently arrested in San Jose, California on charges of stealing at least twenty metal statues that were in the possession of the artist who created them. The statues were all worth over one hundred dollars. The men were also found to be using a stolen vehicle to facilitate their thefts.
Officers spotted a Nissan, occupied by the five suspects, that had been reported stolen. When the officers pulled the Nissan over, they found the statues, as well as weapons and tools used for burglaries. The men were all taken into custody, and the items belonging to the artist were returned to him.
The men could face several years in prison for the crimes of burglary and auto theft.
If you have been charged with theft, please contact the San Jose theft attorneys of the Law Office of Daniel Jensen, P.C. at 408-296-4100.
