 Morro Bay -- San Luis Obispo County Sheriff's detectives have arrested two people believed responsible for a string of thefts on the coast. 36-year-old Shelly Davis and 33-year-old Gustavo Dejesus were booked into county jail Monday evening on charges of possession of stolen property.
Apparently, an alert employee of Hileman Salvage in Atascadero became suspicious of items brought in by the pair for cash. The items appeared to be finished brass pieces of art that had been broken into two to three inch segments. Investigators believe at least seven cases in the north coast area are associated with the pair and are looking for other victims. The brass pieces were taken from front yards of residences, motels and displays. They included dolphin statues, a small boy on a bike and other cast objects. The value of the items is around $40,000.00.
