Panola County Deputies have arrested a Carthage man linked to a string of burglaries that occurred along Highway 795 and Highway 149 in the Beckville and Tatum areas throughout June.
Kobe Holt, 25, was taken into custody on Tuesday, June 24, following a traffic stop after investigators identified him as a suspect in multiple theft cases. The following day, Panola County investigators executed a search warrant at a residence off Highway 315 in Carthage. The search led to the recovery of stolen property, including a firearm and power tools, which will be returned to the victims.
Authorities believe Holt is connected to at least eight active burglary investigations. The recovered evidence will be submitted to the Panola County Criminal District Attorney’s Office for prosecution.
Investigators continue working to locate additional stolen items, and further charges are expected.
