Police link stolen car to Marion burglary case

Police have linked a recovered stolen car to a burglary Wednesday at a home under renovation in Marion, but still are searching for a suspect, Marion Police Lt. Farmer Blue said.
The crime happened at 402 Mceachern Heights early Wednesday morning when someone went into the residence and took about $3,000 in tools, Blue said.
Later that day, Florence County sheriff’s deputies recovered a car near Francis Marion University that had been reported stolen in Marion at about 2 a.m., he said.
Investigators later discovered that car had sawdust and other items in it that could link it to the burglary, Blue said.
