Investigators say 36-year-old Kyle Hill stole space heaters, tools, and bags of dog food that were later found at his home. The unique brand of dog food, bought exclusively online, helped police link him to the theft.
Hill’s vehicle was seized, and officers recovered several stolen items inside. He’s now facing two felony counts of burglary of a building in Bowie County and could face up to two years in state jail on each count if convicted.
