John Otis Carn III, 24, has been charged with possession of stolen nonferrous metals, criminal conspiracy, injury to real property, two counts of breaking into a motor vehicle, and two counts of possession of implements used in a crime.At approximately 11:40 p.m., deputies were dispatched to JT’s Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram after a burglary alarm had been triggered. Upon arrival, they found the parking lot gate open.Deputies noticed several catalytic converters had been hidden under a pickup truck and began to search the area. A vehicle believed to be involved in the incident was found in the woods behind the dealership. Inside the vehicle, officials found a rifle and a handgun. While flying a drone over the area officials spotted a man, later identified as Tyler Childers, hiding in the woods. Childers was found to be in possession of a loaded handgun. While processing the scene, deputies located and arrested John Carn III. He was found hiding under a pickup truck with a Sawzall he had been using to remove the catalytic converters.“Catalytic converter thefts continue to be a concern and this case highlights how our officers’ quick response and then having immediate access to a drone greatly assisted in these arrests”, Lexington Police Chief Terrence Green said. “Law enforcement is rapidly changing with technology and tools evolving that assist our officers daily in making for a safer Town of Lexington.”Childers and Carn are being held at the Lexington County Detention Center.
