A Brady man has been arrested in connection with a Maxwell burglary.

Lincoln County Sheriff Investigators say that sometime between May 24 and May 26, a home on West 2nd Street in Maxwell was burglarized.  Several items were stolen including multiple guns.

On June 1, Deputies received a call from the home’s owner stating that he had located some of his stolen firearms at a rummage sale in Sutherland.

Deputies responded and secured five firearms which were positively identified by the homeowner.

The subject holding the rummage sale advised Deputies that he had purchased the weapons from Seth Schuett, 23, of Brady.

On June 3, Schuett was contacted by Deputies, who conducted a search of Schuett’s residence.  During the search, an additional stolen firearm was located.

Schuett told deputies that he had sold the final weapon to another subject.

Deputies were able to locate the subject in question, who turned the firearm over.

Schuett was arrested and charged with Burglary, Criminal Mischief and Possession of a Stolen Firearm.

He was jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center.
