Caddo County Deputies seek help from the public to locate family farm robbery suspects
BINGER, Okla (KFOR) – The Caddo County Sheriff's Office is searching for the suspects they believe robbed a local family farm.
In the video of the store operated by the Rhoades Family Farm, two people can be seen taking armfuls of merchandise out of the store.
The Caddo County Sheriff's Office later identified the alleged thieves as Karla Francesca Jones and Donnie Ray Parks.
"These two identified individuals broke into this establishment and took every single piece of produce, every jarred product, every meat product out of the refrigeration system in the freezer and stole it all," said the Caddo County Chief Deputy Chris Leal.
The store ran on an honor system; customers were able to get the homemade goods they wanted and were expected to leave their payment in a lockbox in the building.
"Ms. Rhodes has indicated to me that not only does this hurt them personally and their business, they feel violated, but also due to the current shutdown, her husband is affected as well as her family, of course, and this was another way they were trying to get by making ends meet," said Deputy Leal.
The sheriff's office believes they have identified the pair in the video, but they have been unable to take them into custody.
"We have not been able to locate them. They could still be in Caddo County, but we know they have ties to Blaine County, specifically Watonga, Canadian County, Yukon, and the El Reno area, and they frequent casinos," Deputy Leal explained.
Deputy Leal says both Jones and Parks have arrest warrants for second-degree burglary.
The suspects are believed to be travelling in a four-door Chevrolet with Apache tags.
Deputy Leal says that anyone with information on the suspects is asked to contact local law enforcement.
