Mary Alice Reporting – A burglary occurred on River Hill Road and Tuscarawas County Sheriff Deputies say they have a suspect in custody.
The theft was of a side-by-side utility vehicle and a gun. The suspect, later identified as Lonnie Snively, crashed the UTV and sustained a non-life threatening head injury, but had left the scene prior to law enforcement arrival.
Detective Sgt. Ed Jones says they received an anonymous tip Friday morning of a possible suspect and due to an active warrant, from community control sanctions, deputies followed the lead to a N. 3rd Street home in Dennison.
“Mr. Snively was there and had sustained injuries from the accident where the UTV was located on Echo Road. He was ultimately transported to Union Hospital for treatment, he was then brought to the Tuscarawas County Jail.”
The 37-year-old is being held on the active warrant and charges of theft, burglary, and having a weapon while under disability.
