Men Allegedly Spent Money Stolen
in Wetmore Township Burglary

A Kane man and a Crawford County man are facing charges for allegedly spending money stolen in a McKean County burglary.

19-year-old Shane Hurlburt of Kane and 25-year-old John Hollabaugh of Vernon Township are each charged with receiving stolen property.

According to an affidavit of probable cause in District Judge Michael Rossi's office, state police were investigating a burglary that happened July 8 in Wetmore Township, where a large amount of cash and a safe were taken from a bedroom.

The investigation led police to Vernon Township, where they found $14,000 of the stolen money and a number of items purchased with the money at Hollabaugh's home.

Some of the money was used to buy a television and a video-game system; a dog cage; and trips to Waldameer, Splash Lagoon and Cedar Point. Hurlburt accepted some of the stolen money and used it to pay for car insurance and registration and to buy clothing, a cell phone and jewelry, according to the affidavit.

Hurlburt is free on $25,000 bail. Hollabaugh is free on $15,000 bond.
