Nicholas Scott Cook, 20, and David Joe Duggan, 46, both of Buchanan Road, were arrested last week after a Bradley County Grand Jury handed down indictments in the case.

Investigation conducted by the Criminal Investigations Division of the Bradley County Sheriff’s Office revealed identifying numbers on the Yamaha ATV were changed before it was taken to a flea market in Dalton Georgia where it was sold. The new owner took the vehicle to Texas and had plans to cross the Mexican border however the vehicle was correctly identified before it left the country. It has since been returned to the original owner.     

The 2007 Yahama Grizzly was valued at $9,000.
