Father and Son Arrested in Connection with Hendricks County Burglaries

Avon- Hendricks County Sheriff’s Office Detectives, with assistance from the Indiana State Police, Avon Police Department, and Plainfield Police Department arrested two suspects who have been linked to more than five burglaries in the Avon and Eastern Hendricks County areas.
