A months-long investigation led to the arrests of two suspects this week who have been terrorizing the Village of Wellington with vehicle burglaries.
Nigel Campbell and a 15-year-old juvenile were arrested Wednesday by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office for multiple vehicle burglaries that have occurred in Wellington neighborhoods, including Grand Isles, the Equestrian Club, Castellina, Olympia, Village Walk and Wellington Shores.
At the time of their arrest, Campbell was found to be in possession of a stolen firearm, and the juvenile was found to be in possession of a stolen knife. Property was also discovered that had not been reported yet.
PBSO detectives estimate that these suspects were involved in at least 40 vehicle burglaries over a 5-month period. Items stolen were guns, credit cards, cash, iPhones, bicycles and more. The investigation is ongoing.
Great job by the police!
