Police said on April 4, Sullivan and Lamont were pulled over in truck while driving through Middlesex County. Sullivan was charged with driving with a suspended license. Police said they found him in possession of a pry bar and a Westwood High School class ring that had been reported stolen.

After executing search warrants, police said they found a trove of jewelry at the suspects' homes.

Police credited a newly-signed Inter-Agency Mutual Aid Agreement for aiding the investigation.

"The teamwork of police detectives was instrumental in bring closure to this case and returning stolen property to their rightful owners," said Natick Police Chief James Hicks in a statement. "Without Sherborn investigators talking to Lincoln, and Weston talking to Sudbury, and so on, these suspects might still be victimizing homeowners today."
