HARRISON COUNTY -- Two tow-truck operators are accused of stealing a car part from one vehicle before they repossessed a different vehicle from property on East Shadow Creek Drive in Biloxi, authorities said.
Sheriff’s officers arrested Jason Marshall Burnett, 30, and Richard Wally Wedgeworth, 37, Friday afternoon on a charge of grand larceny.
They were arrested on a complaint filed by a man who called the sheriff’s office to report his daughter’s vehicle had been repossessed from his property and a water pump had been stolen from the front seat of his own vehicle, Sheriff’s Maj. Ron Pullen said.
They were arrested Friday and booked at the Harrison County jail. Justice Court Judge Brandon Ladner set bond for each at $10,000. Both men were released on bail Friday night.
