Three eastern Iowa residents, including two teens, were arrested and a warrant was issued for a fourth person, in connection with an investigation into burglaries and thefts which were committed in Stanton, beginning in early September. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office reports: 20-year old Ashley Nicole Peercy was charged with Accessory after the fact, and held on $2,000 bond; 16-year old Kenneth Michael Landgrebe was charged with two counts each of Burglary in the 3rd degree, and Theft in the 2nd degree; 15-year old Ridge Alan Weithers faces two counts of Burglary in the 3rd degree.  All three suspects are from Newton.  The two teens were transported to the Juvenile Detention Center in Council Bluffs, where they were being held pending a sentencing hearing.

Authorities say a warrant was issued for 21-year old Caleb Michael Schwabe, of Newton, who faces charges that include two counts each of Burglary in the 3rd degree, Theft in the 2nd degree/motor vehicle-related, and a felony charge of using a juvenile to commit an offense.

If you know the location of Schwabe, you’re asked to contact your local law enforcement agency or the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office at 712-623-5107.
