Lexington County, SC (WLTX) - A woman and two teenagers are accused of breaking into a home and stealing several items, including a pit bull dog.

Officers arrested 19-year-old Candy Garland, 17-year-old Justin Jackson, and a 16-year-old juvenile. Garland and Jackson are charged with second-degree burglary. The 16-year-old faces a similar charge, but his case will be heard in family court.

Deputies say they got information that the three had items which had been reported stolen from a home on Cassidy Road near Gaston.

Police say the three took a television and speakers, jewelry, clothes, and a pit bull named Jake.

Deputies say they recovered the stolen property, and added that the dog had been returned earlier to the homeowners.
