Two men allegedly broke into a Tri-State barbershop so they could buy heroin.

Aurora Police responded to Ted's Barber Shop in Aurora, Indiana, earlier this month to find the window broken out and the cash register taken.

A tip lead to the arrest of Bradley A. Creech, age 19, and Tanner J. Kincade, age 21, both of whom live about a block from the barber shop.

Officers found the cash register and baseball bat in Hogan Creek where the evidence was thrown out. 

Upon further investigation, officers learned the money from the burglary was used in an attempt to purchase heroin in Cincinnati.

Both Creech and Kincade are charged with burglary and theft and incarcerated at the Dearborn County Jail.

Both are being held on $1,500.00 cash bond and $75,000 surety bond.

My advice to stop all this is to close the border with Mexico, deport all illegals, and therefore get rid of most of the heroin in this country. When supply dries up, addicts tend to seek treatment.
