 Three people have been arrested in a recent string of burglaries in Elkhorn City. Elkhorn City Police Chief Bobby Sexton says that he arrested 31-year-old Mark Marinero, 47-year-old Tabitha Potter, and 24-year-old Dion Bates. The recent criminal activity has Elkhorn City Police on high alert. We've been receiving several complaints over the past few weeks of break and enterings from businesses and residences alike. We've also had reports of suspicious vehicles, possible drug activity throughout the community, which led our Assistant Chief Devin Sloan to open an investigation on these incidences. On a non-related complaint, one of the individuals gave up information related to some of the break-ins. Chief Sexton states those he arrested weren't just targeting homes. They also broke into a local church. One particular business is a famine time ministries. It's a church which gives away free items to people who need those items, which is the sad part about it because they could have easily walked up to this church and asked for the items that they stole, which is sad in itself. But some of the items that were stolen were suitcases, purses, shoes, whatnot, simple things that they could have asked for and would have been easily given to them. Also, I would encourage those residences and people around the community to get video cameras, post signs that you have video surveillance, know our numbers. It's on our office, 424-182-8794-8754 or call 911. If you see any suspicious vehicles, call it in. Anything past the hours of business operation, it looks suspicious to us and the community. Also, our officers are instructed to, if we see any juveniles out past the curfew, to pick those juveniles up and take them home.
