One day before Christmas Eve, an 18-year old man and an 18-year old woman were arrested and charged with four counts of "Burglary to an Auto." The charges came shortly after police were called to a "Burglary to Auto in Progress" report on Crape Circle. Crape Circle is in the area of Florence Road in Murfreesboro.

Once in the area, police received information about the suspect vehicle. Detective Gorham spotted the car on Florence Road and initiated a traffic stop. During the stop, the passenger in the car got out and attempted to walk away. Police quickly ordered her to stop.
