Three suspects involved in an international crime ring are facing several charges for burglary, attempted burglary and theft. Law enforcement claimed the men were part of a larger group from South America, accused of targeting hundreds of Asian and East Indian homes, and burglarizing them throughout the region.

Thursday, a judge found probable cause in each case during proceedings at the Snohomish County Courthouse. Each suspect appeared at the court hearing virtually with a Spanish-speaking interpreter. Bail was set at $500,000 for each man."The crimes that have been committed here are atrocious," said Maren McKay, communications manager for the Lynnwood Police Department.Two of the suspects were arrested Wednesday in Tacoma.

Barker and Galloway said data from cellphone towers has been critical in their investigations, and explained the suspects would make phone calls during the burglaries."When you live in urban areas, like Mukilteo, like Lynnwood, like south Snohomish County, there are more cell sites in these particular areas. So, when you make a phone call, your phone should connect to the closest available tower," said Galloway.
