The McKinley County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a report of a stolen purse and the theft of pawn items.

Annie Marie Joe, 61, came into the sheriff’s office on Jan. 15 and said that her purse had been stolen the previous August in Tempe, Ariz. Inside the purse were pawn tickets for some items she had pawned last year at Horizon Pawn, Shush Yaz Trading LLC, and Griswalds Inc.

The items that had been pawned included a necklace, concho belt, numerous bracelets, a rug, a number of baskets, and two flatbed trailers. No value for the items was listed on the report.

When she went to Shush Yaz Trading LLC in December to pay the interest to keep them in pawn, she learned that the items had been picked up already in August.

The sheriff’s office reported on Thursday that the matter was still under investigation. No further information was available because the sheriff detectives were all in court.
