Friday at approximately 2:30 p.m., Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office detectives and SWAT executed a search warrant at a residence in the 8600 block of Phelan Boulevard in Beaumont.

The search warrant was related to a series of auto burglaries that occurred the previous weekend in the Hamshire-Fannett area and in Bevil Oaks.

Deputies arrested two people believed to be responsible for the auto burglaries and subsequent use of some of the stolen credit cards, as well as made an unrelated arrest of another individual with outstanding traffic warrants.
