The Hardin County Sheriff’s office arrested a Rineyville man who was allegedly involved in a burglary last Friday.
According to arrest citations, on September 16th, deputies responded to Rineyville Big Springs Road in reference to a vehicle that had been broken into. The vehicle had all four windows broken, the windshield cracked, and other damage done, exceeding $1,000 in damage. A smartech auto care pack was reported missing. Later, deputies responded to a residence further down the same road, where forced entry into the residence was made. Several items including knives, firearms, and a Yamaha ATV were reported missing. Deputies identified Lane Ashley as a suspect, as he had allegedly pawned one of the stolen knives. Deputies responded to Ashley’s residence, detaining him and transporting him to Hardin County Sheriff’s office.

A search warrant at Ashley’s residence uncovered a revolver stolen from the second residence, and the Smartech pack and other items identified as belonging to the Pontiac owner, as well as marijuana and digital scales.
