Two people were arrested last week in connection with a burglary at A-1 Security Self Storage in Mason City, Iowa. Officers responded to 4067 S. Federal Ave. just after midnight on Aug. 21 to investigate intruders caught on the facility’s video surveillance, according to the source.
During their search, police discovered a storage unit missing a lock. When they opened the door, they found two people inside with burglary tools. Neither had a connection to the person renting the unit, the source reported.
