Six Charged In Connection To String Of Burglaries

Six individuals have been arrested in connection to a string of burglaries that occurred earlier this month in the Woodlawn and Indian Mound areas of Montgomery County.

Montgomery County Sheriff’s Department Public Information Officer Sandra Brandon says the burglaries happened between March 8 and March 15 at two homes in the 4000 block of Cumberland City road, a home in the 3000 block of Cooper Creek Road, and a home in the 3000 block of York Landing Road.

Multiple firearms, military ballistic plates, nearly 2500 rounds of ammunition, electronics, and approximately $15,000 in jewelry were reported stolen during the burglaries.

Officer Brandon says an investigation led officers to get search warrants for a home on Lylewood Road and a home on Sunnyview Drive where investigators recovered three assault rifles, two shotguns, two rifles, three pistols, 265 grams of marijuana, 10 grams of cocaine and drug paraphernalia.

Investigators arrested and charged 36-year old Joshua Donahoo, 48-year old Serena Blackburn-Dillow, and 33-year old Eric Luz for the Aggravated Burglaries. In addition, Donahoo and Luz were also charged with being a Fugitive Wanted from Another State.

The sheriff’s office also arrested and charged 19-year old Jeremiah Gaines, 22-year old Tyriq Saafir, and 18-year old Vintarious Williams for three counts of Possession for Resale and Unlawful Drug Paraphernalia. Gaines and Williams were also charged with Possessing a Firearm During Commission or Attempt to Commit Dangerous Felony.

All of the subjects were lodged in the Montgomery County Jail.
