March 3rd, 2022 8:32 am

PLAINFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich:  On March 1st, KCSO detectives arrested two Grand Rapids men on a 20-year felony of Conducting Criminal Enterprise.  The 55-year-old and 35-year-old are suspected of stealing multiple catalytic convertors.  On February 11th, 2022 KCSO deputies investigated a break in of a storage unit facility along English Ave. The suspects broke into multiple vehicles and cut off a catalytic convertor. Shortly thereafter, deputies developed leads on a possible suspect vehicle. KCSO detectives joined the investigation and on March 1st were able to catch two suspects in the act of cutting off catalytic convertors at a park and ride lot along 10 Mile Rd near US131. Subsequent search warrants have been conducted and stolen property has been returned to their rightful owners. It is believed that these suspects have been involved in other thefts.  Both men are expected to be arraigned in 63rd District Court this week. 

If you have information that could help to move the investigation forward, please call the KCSO at 616-632-6125, or call Silent Observer at 616-774-2345 to report information safely and anonymously.
