Authorities arrested the co-owner of a Colorado Springs pawn shop who they believe is connected to multiple burglaries in El Paso County.
On Wednesday, El Paso County Sheriff deputies were called to the 700 block of Wildridge Road in Black Forest, on a report of an attempted burglary, according to a news release from the sheriff's department.
After arriving, a woman told deputies that the side door to her garage had been kicked in. Soon after, the woman saw a man run away. The woman gave deputies a description of a car she believed the suspect drove away in.
Before authorities completed investigating the first attempted burglary, they received a report about a separate burglary in the 7900 block of Forest Heights Circle. Several items were stolen from the home, including collector's coins and jewelry.
Soon after, deputies spotted a vehicle that matched the first victim's description traveling near Black Forest. They stopped the vehicle and quickly recognized that items inside the vehicle matched the list of items stolen from the second victim's home.
The driver was identified as 43-year-old Kevin Lee Mosher, co-owner of the Fast Cash Pawn and Loan in Colorado Springs.
While speaking with Mosher, deputies were told about a third burglary in the 15000 block of Milhaven Place. Evidence found at that location was later linked to Mosher. A fourth burglary in Black Forest was also attributed to Mosher.
Authorities later learned that Mosher may also be connected to additional burglaries in Douglas County. Stolen items were recovered from Mosher's pawn shop in Colorado springs.
Mosher was taken into custody and booked into the Criminal Justice Center on suspicion of second-degree burglary and theft.
