Hanford, CA – Two men were arrested this week in connection with a Kings County burglary that left a business owner missing $25,000 in property.
According to the Kings County Sheriff’s Office, deputies first responded to a burglary on Aug. 10 in the 8000 block of Fargo Avenue. The case was later turned over to the Rural Crimes Unit for investigation.
Detectives identified Levi Young of Hanford as a suspect. The Kings County District Attorney’s Office filed criminal charges, and a $1.9 million warrant was issued for Young due to his prior criminal history and current supervision status. He was later arrested in Fresno by the Multi-Agency Gang Enforcement Consortium (MAGEC).
A search warrant at a Fresno property led to the recovery of $25,000 worth of stolen goods, which were returned to the victim, officials said.
Investigators also linked another suspect, Buddy Young, to the case. He was later arrested in Fresno and is being held on $200,000 bail.
The Kings County Sheriff’s Office credited MAGEC, Fresno Police Department, and the Kings County District Attorney’s Office for their assistance in the arrests and recovery efforts.
