Two persons accused of prying open the money-changing machine at the Trimble carwash waived their rights to preliminary hearings May 19 in Dyer County General Sessions Court.

The pair reportedly burglarized the carwash and vandalized the money-changing machine on April 24.

* Preston Todd Thrasher, 41, 476 Katie Cove, waived his right to a preliminary hearing May 22 on a fourth offense driving on a suspended license. He was cited April 4 after stopping at a sobriety checkpoint.

I moved to Trimble about a year ago, wasnt moved all the way in yet cause we had to do some repairs on the place and we went there one night and someone broke in and ran sacked the place and stole a few stuff. They still havent been caught. We got what we had there and found another place here in dyersburg
