MARBLE HILL, MO (KFVS) -

Three people are accused of stealing cattle from a Bollinger County farm.

Bollinger County Sheriff Darrin Shell says the suspects are 27-year-old Jonathan Goldsberry of Whitewater and 18-year-old Shawntae Green of Evansville, Indiana. They are charged with five counts of stealing.

Sheriff Shell says there is a warrant out for a third suspect, 28-year-old Bernard "JR" Willett of Waverly, Kentucky. He also faces five-counts of felony stealing.

The cattle theft occurred around midnight on January 7.

Troopers say ten cattle were stolen. That's about $8,000 worth of livestock.

Sheriff Shell says the cattle were sold the following day in Owensboro Auction Barn in Kentucky.
