Clues in the snow led to the arrests of two suspects in a business break-in during last weekend’s monster storm in the Charlotte region and rest of the state, Iredell County Sheriff Darren Campbell said in a social media post.

Deputies found a broken window and a damaged safe after responding to a burglar alarm at the business on Sharon School Road in the western end of the county early Sunday, Feb. 1, Campbell said.

A money box containing $1,800 in cash was missing, along with merchandise, the sheriff said, without disclosing the name of the business .

“Despite winter storm conditions, deputies and canine Levi followed the suspect’s track from the business toward Goble Road, where evidence was recovered,” Campbell said.

Deputies also determined that a driver picked up the thief, the sheriff said.

“Limited traffic allowed deputies to follow vehicle tracks to a residence” where officers executed a search warrant and found stolen goods, Campbell sad.

Investigators arrested a man on multiple felony charges and a woman on a felony conspiracy charge, according to the sheriff.
