The Palo Alto County Sheriff’s Office and Emmetsburg police obtained search warrants as the result of their investigation.
Authorities recovered several items stolen in the burglaries while executing the warrants last Friday at 406 North Superior Street and 2901 13th Street in Emmetsburg.
As a result, authorities Monday arrested 23-year-old Tracy McCallum of Emmetsburg. McCallum was charged with three counts of third degree burglary…all class “D” felonies. McCallum was unable to post a 10-thousand dollar cash or surety bond and was booked into jail.
