Pinson boys facing burglary charges

August 24, 2013
Three runaway Boundary County boys who were found safe in Bonner County Wednesday are each facing multiple burglary charges and the eldest, Ethan Pinson, 15, remains in police custody.

The two younger boys, Cody Pinson, 13, and Dakota Pinson, 9, have been returned to their adoptive parents at their Paradise Valley home. The trio ran away from the home August 15.

Spokane's KREM 2 News reported Thursday that the three were discovered burglarizing a home southwest of Lake Pend Orielle near Sagle by a retired New York police officer, who held them at gunpoint and summoned authorities. For the full KREM article, click here.

The boys spent part of the week they were missing at a campsite in the woods a few hundred yards from the remote homes they allegedly burglarized, KREM reported. It was there officers found a number of items taken, including guns, ammunition, medications, alcohol, rare coins and more.
