TTPD shared on their Facebook page that Detective Lauren Freeman arrested 40-year-old Cameron Flores on Wednesday for Filing a False Report and Engaging in Organized Criminal Activity related to the theft of property valued between $30,000 and $150,000.

Flores, who originally was 'the victim' and reported the theft, had worked along with Kenneth Shavers and Nicklas Burkland to steal Flores’ Ford F-250 truck and Puma Palomino camper from his business on Texas Boulevard.

The three then hid the stolen truck and camper and filed a fraudulent insurance claim in late October. But soon things started to fall apart and they realized the police were onto them. They decided to get rid of the evidence by dumping and burning the truck just northwest of DeKalb. The camper was still listed as missing, but it seems that was destroyed as well.

Kenneth Shavers and Nicklas Burkland were arrested on November 4. But they were still looking for the third suspect until Wednesday.
