AMITY — Authorities in southwest Arkansas say they have broken up what they say was an all-terrain vehicle theft ring.
Police said five ATVs stolen in Howard County were recovered, as well as an assortment of parts, wheels and tires. Howard County Sheriff Butch Morris says a man whose ATV was stolen saw someone riding it Saturday at the Hillarosa Mud Bog in Hempstead County.
The sheriff said the man tried to take back the vehicle, but the rider left. Pike County sheriff's detective Clark Kinzler told the Texarkana Gazette that the victim gave officials enough information to break the case.
The four people arrested are all from Amity in Clark County. They're in the Pike County jail while they await a court hearing.
Morris said he expects more stolen property will be recovered.
