De Soto teens accused of stealing truck, burglaries

Two De Soto teenagers are accused of stealing a truck and trailer and committing burglaries at several De Soto businesses earlier this week, said Master Deputy Tom Erickson, a Johnson County Sheriff’s spokesman. The teenagers who had also gone missing earlier in the week had taken a truck and trailer and drove to a relative’s house in Smithville, Mo., Erickson said, before officers were able to speak with them.

The truck and trailer were stolen late Monday or early Tuesday from De Soto Feed and Grain, 8155 Hadley Road.
