Police have released the names of the three suspects that stole a dryer from a Harlingen home.

John DeLeon, Juan Rodriguez, and Jason Romero were caught shortly after the dryer that they had stolen fell from the back of their truck.

The 20-year-old, 19-year-old and 22-year-old broke into a home on the 1500 block of Queen Sago Rd and then fled from the home with the stolen item.

As the trio was zooming down Stuart Place Road by the frontage road of Expressway 83, the dryer fell from the back of the pick-up.

An undercover officer spotted the car headed to towards San Benito and Harlingen and San Benito PD were able to stop the vehicle on Panchita Street.

All three men were charged with 2nd degree burglary of a habitation and their bonds were each set at $25,000.
