A man, woman and minor from Porter have been arrested after Wagoner County Sheriff's Deputies say they stole welders and other equipment then pawned some of it.

Officials said the burglary took place in the 300 block of East Keystone on Oct. 5. A welder and chainsaw were recovered, but another welder and specialty saw were found at a Coweta pawn shop, deputies said.

Deborah Jones, 47, and Tracy Gene Lemons, 37, both of Porter, were arrested in conjunction with the burglary, a news release says.

Jones was interviewed and arrested on Oct. 7 for knowingly concealing stolen property and false declaration of pawn. Lemons was arrested on Tuesday for knowingly concealing stolen property.

Jones is free on a $5,000 bond, and Lemons is in the Wagoner County Jail.

Investigators also arrested a juvenile from the Porter area who reportedly admitted responsibility for the burglary during an interview.
