Henry County police recently arrested two men for allegedly stealing copper from a Stockbridge house. After a brief police chase, authorities caught up with the two, and discovered a 4-year-old child, who was in the car at the time the alleged crime was committed.

Neighbors called police after they watched Jerry Lee Smith and Brian Carl Yearta allegedly break into a vacant house on Bryant Street in Stockbridge, said Henry County Police Sgt. Joey Smith.
