Murfreesboro Police have made an arrest in a recent rash of car break-ins. 29-Year old Brian Terry Helton of Woodbury was apprehended on Boston Avenue at Middle Tennessee Boulevard before the sunrise on Monday morning.

Police say they spotted Helton with what appeared to be "items concealed under his shirt." When Helton saw police, he allegedly ran. Police followed and eventually caught the suspect and placed him in cuff's. Helton also had a backpack full of things that were reportedly, not his.
