Two men accused of attempting to sell a bass guitar that they had allegedly stolen in an auto burglary at World Outreach Church were arrested. Nathan Cody Hewitt and Oliver Quenton Bane apparently met with an officer who was passing as a buyer for the guitar at a local eatery. Hewitt and Bane advertised the bass guitar for sale on CraigsList. After the officer determined the guitar was the one that was stolen from a car at the church by matching the guitars serial number to the one given to him by the victim, the two were arrested. During a police interview, the two men admitted to police that they did indeed break into two cars at the church. Each of the men were charged with burglary to an auto, theft over $1,000 and theft under $500. The men will appear in court on October 10th
