Deputies of the Logan County Sheriff’s Office were able to apprehend two suspects in an Friday afternoon burglary to a residence.

Matthew D. Cheadle, 31, at large, and Jason T. Overholt, 34, at large, each was charged with aggravated burglary and possession crimininal tools.

Dispatchers received a 911 call at 1:12 p.m. from a homeowner at 1416 County Road 1. A deputy was on patrol very nearby and responded immediately.

Both suspects were detained in the home: one on the first floor and the other upstairs.

Bellefontaine Police Department provided a canine unit which tracked the suspects’ path to the residence. It appears the men walked from the Lake Addition to the residence.

Both were wearing masks, hooded jackets and gloves and carrying backpacks and tools used in the break-in.

Both were lodged in the Logan County Jail.
