Two people have been arrested in connection with the theft of a pressure washer and some tools in Roane County earlier in the week.

Roane Sheriff Todd Cole says Robert Joseph Diaz and Chelsea Raedawn Thomas were found in a stolen truck and arrested.

Both Diaz and Thomas are in South Central Regional Jail with bond set at $75,000.00 each.

The theft happened at a residence along US 119 just south of Walton.

Neighbors reported a white Ford pickup truck at the scene, later discovered to be stolen.

The same truck was reportedly involved in an ATV theft on Vickers Ridge near the Jackson County line last week.

Investigators found the stolen ATV in Kanawha County.
