Reno county authorities have arrested three people wanted in a string of recent auto break-ins.

The Reno County Sheriff's office had been investigating a series of crimes in the Homefield Housing Addition, near 4th and Obee Rd.

Officials said the suspects stole cash, wallets, purses and electronics from victim's cars.

Investigators used video from convenience stores where they say two of the suspects tried to use a stolen credit card to make a purchase.

On Monday, deputies served a search warrant at a home in the 300 block of W. 12th. There, they recovered several items that had been reported stolen.

Officers arrested Marshall Nely, 23, Tara Bruse, 19 and Simon Boast, 19 in connection to the crimes. They are all charged with auto burglary, theft and criminal possession of stolen property.
