Two men have been arrested in connection with a December burglary, and a third is being sought by police.

Wednesday, Paducah police arrested 23-year-old Adam Thomasson and 24-year-old James Cook, both of Paducah, on 1st degree burglary charges. A 1st degree burglary arrest warrant was also issued for 24-year-old Thomas Meyer of Ft. Thomas. Police are still searching for Meyer. 

Police said the charges stem from a burglary that happened in December, during which multiple firearms were stolen. The victim had reportedly been in his garage when he began to feel ill. He went inside, forgetting to close and lock his garage. Thomasson, Cook and Meyer were on foot in the area of Mayfield-Metropolis Road when they saw the open garage door. The three reportedly entered the garage, stealing several guns.
 
Police say several of the guns have been recovered, but some are still missing. The investigation is ongoing, and additional arrests are possible in the future.
