Gold Theft Ring Travels Long Distances to Steal

Three people are under arrest in Texas and police want to arrest four others for a burglary ring that targeted more than 40 homes in the Portland area.  John Bennett, with the Washington County Sheriff's Office, says there were multiple groups working the ring.  They would drive rental cars from Texas to Oregon; buy tools to commit the burglaries, and then dump the tools as they drove back to Texas with the stolen gold and jewelry.  They would sell it for pennies on the dollar.  They have stolen more than a million dollars worth of gold, jewelry and cash.
