(April 11, 2008)—The McLennan County Grand Jury has returned indictments against 22 people in an investigation of an alleged burglary and forgery ring.

Police began making arrests in the case in January after a yearlong investigation stemming from a series of motor vehicle, residential and business burglaries in which checkbooks, credit cards and personal documents were stolen.

The break-ins dated back to April 2007.

Shortly after the burglaries, authorities said, police began to get reports of forged checks, credit card fraud and counterfeiting, all stemming from the break-ins.
