Three women were arrested following Saturday’s 3:30 p.m. burglary of three CSX train cars at 17th Avenue North and Jo Johnson Avenue. Nicquelette Buford, 26, Nakaria Anthony, 20, and Lametria Scales, 19, were found by officers stealing boxes of athletic shoes on the railroad before they fled into a fence cut through and attempted to drive off in two vehicles.
Officers successfully stopped the vehicles where boxes of the stolen merchandise were found in one and just outside the other.
Each suspect was charged with three counts of burglary, aggravated criminal trespassing, theft of merchandise and critical infrastructure vandalism.
