A burglary at a Willow Springs Road residence results in an arrest.

Casey County Deputy Jayson Grider responded to a burglary call on Sunday at 521 Willow Springs Rd., the residence of Shayna Luttrell, who was out of town. Her sister, Carrie Moore, reported the incident and was present upon the deputy's arrival.

The back door of the home was open, and the outbuilding door had been screwed shut. A Harley Davidson motorcycle and a small green dirt bike were missing. Inside the residence, a purple toolbox was gone, the washer door had been removed, and several items were missing. Phone cables outside the trailer were cut, disabling the wifi/phone service.

During the investigation, it was discovered that a neighbor, Kevin S. Hatter, age 47, along with another male and two females, had been inside the residence removing items. The following day, Shayna provided a list of missing items.

While investigating, Deputy Grider encountered Mr. Hatter, who admitted to taking the items, claiming he thought Shayna had abandoned the property because he hadn't seen her in three or four days. The stolen items were found hidden on Hatter's father's farm.

The stolen property was recovered with the assistance of Sheriff Chad Weddle, Special Deputy Robin Lynn, and Casey County Road Department employees.

Kevin Hatter was charged with Burglary-2nd and 3rd degree, Criminal Mischief-2nd degree, Theft by Unlawful Taking (over $10,000), and Tampering with Physical Evidence. He was lodged in the Casey County Jail.
