TAHLEQUAH DAILY PRESS — Tahlequah police arrested two people Tuesday on knowingly concealing stolen property charges.

Eric Avery, 26, and Patricia Bertram, 42, were booked for concealing stolen property. Special District Judge Sandy Crosslin set appearance bonds of $5,000 bonds on Avery and Bertram.

A probable cause affidavit by TPD Detective Jeff Haney states Avery and Bertram took a Dell computer into a local pawn shop and sold it for $75.

The computer had been stolen about 20 minutes before Haney was called by the pawn shop. Items from the victim’s refrigerator and her friend’s television were also taken.

The affidavit states Bertram sold the computer for Avery, and got $20 for doing so. Bertram told pawn shop employees she had owned the computer for two years, according to Haney’s affidavit.

The pair also allegedly tried to sell the television, but the pawn shop wouldn’t take it. The TV was recovered by police.

Avery refused to speak with Haney about the property, the affidavit states. Formal charges will be filed in district court.
