The Polk County Sheriff’s Office had received a report of a house being broken into about two weeks ago in the Mill Spring community. Detectives began looking into the report and following up on the leads that they had developed.

The residence was broken into again when investigators began utilizing several investigative techniques. A break came in the case when detectives were conducting a security check of the residence and saw a female duck around the corner of the house.

Additional units were requested which assisted in setting up a perimeter around the property. Three females, Christina Parris, Amy Bowers-Sypress, and Eva Acosta were all arrested when coming out from inside of the residence.
