LAURINBURG – Laurinburg police have arrested a Southport man and are looking for a Leland woman in connection with two break ins at local pawn shops in March.

Joshua Delynn Dial, 26, of Southport was served with warrants on April 7 following a joint investigation between Laurinburg police and Brunswick County Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms, according to Assistant Police Chief Cliff Sessoms.

He received a $60,000 secured bond.

Dial was in the custody in Brunswick County on unrelated shooting.

A shotgun valued at $1,600 was taken from Treasure City Pawn and $300 damage was done to a metal door.
