The Delaware State Police arrested 34-year-old Jennifer Barnes of Dover, Delaware, for the burglary of a Leipsic home last month.
On March 19, 2024, troopers were called to a home in the 200 block of Main Street in Leipsic for a burglary. When troopers arrived, they found an unknown suspect had entered the occupied home sometime overnight by pushing in a window on a screen door. Once inside, the suspect took the keys to a Dodge Ram truck. The suspect left the house and stole the truck, which has since been recovered. The investigation led detectives to Daniel Rholetter and Jennifer Barnes as the suspects in the burglary, and warrants were obtained for their arrest.
Rholetter was arrested on April 1, 2024. On April 9, 2024, Barnes was arrested and taken to Troop 3, where she was charged with the crimes listed below, arraigned by Justice of the Peace Court 2, and committed to Delores J. Baylor Correctional Institution on a $24,100 cash bond.
