Patrina Adger reports:

A man has been charged and arrested after authorities said he hacked into the Guthrie Police Department’s confidential computer system.

On Sept. 7, police obtained a warrant to search 19-year-old Jared Joslin’s home, where officers discovered several police radios and handheld devices that were stolen from the Logan County Sheriff’s Office within the past year.
