CANTON — Canton detectives are searching for two burglary suspects and are asking for your help locating them.

This week, police officers responded to two reported theft incidents in the River Green Subdivision. First, on Monday, March 25, at about 1:42 p.m., units were called to the location and upon further investigation, learned both restrooms at the neighborhood clubhouse had been entered just after 1:15 a.m.., the same day.

Officers were able to obtain surveillance video of the facility and observed a white male and white female come onto the property and appear to pick the locks of both restrooms. Before the suspects left the scene, the video shows the male stole pieces of the hardware from the door locking systems of both bathrooms.

The next day, officers were again called to the River Green Clubhouse and advised, the duo came back on Tuesday, March 26, during the early morning hours.

Surveillance video was reviewed and showed the same suspects removed and stole the security badge reader controllers and the exit button from both gate entrances to the pool area.

Criminal Investigation Division Detectives responded and immediately began investigating the cases. Early into the investigation, police say a detective recognized the male in the video as a person he had dealt with during a previous call for service.

As he dug further, he confirmed his suspicions and identified the suspect along with his girlfriend as the suspects involved in both crimes.

Arrest warrants have been secured for both individuals who are being sought at this time. The department is asking anyone with information on the whereabouts of the wanted individuals to call 911 or send a tip to Detective Kyle Smith via his e-mail at kyle.smith@cantonga.gov.

The suspects are:
Jeremy Bean, 38, of Atlanta
Meghan Williams, 26, of Acworth

Both are charged with one count of burglary, two counts of theft by taking, one count of possession of tools for commission of a crime and one count of criminal trespass.
