(Red Oak, Iowa) – Sheriff’s officials in Montgomery County, Thursday, reported that three individuals were taken into custody on felony charges connected with a burglary and attempted burglary in the county. Authorities say 38-year-old Garret Allen Horgdal, of Henderson, was arrested March 8th, 38-year-old Jannell Marie Davis, of Henderson, was arrested March 11th, and 39-year-old Jacob Kimball, of Carson, was arrested March 30th.

An investigation into their alleged activities began on February 21st. A burglary at 1377 130th Street resulted in the loss of an estimated $117,927 in tools. An attempted burglary at 1172 D Avenue resulted in damage to a door.

The Sheriff’s Department says Garrett Horgdal was originally charged with Possession of Methamphetamine with Intent to Deliver (Class B Felony) following a traffic stop. He was taken to the Montgomery County Jail and held without bond. Four additional charges arose after search warrants were conducted on his vehicle and residence. Law Enforcement found three loaded firearms while searching his Chevy Pickup on March 9th. This resulted in three Class D Felony Counts of Felon in Possession of a Firearm.

Two days later authorities uncovered numerous suspected stolen tools during a search of Horgdal’s residence at 501 Maple Street in Henderson. The search of the residence resulted in a Theft 1st Degree (Class C Felony) charge against Horgdal along with the arrest of Jannell Davis, who was also charged with Theft 1st Degree (Class C Felony) and transported to the Montgomery County Jail. Davis was arrested again on March 22nd, taken back into custody, and charged with Transfer of a Firearm to a Felon (Class D Felony).

On March 30th, the Sheriff’s Office executed a search warrant at 412 N Commercial Street in Carson.
