Two Cumberland men were recently arrested in connection with a burglary that happened March 29 in Harlan County, according to the Kentucky State Police.

Marquise Long, 18, and Joseph Smith, 20, both of Cumberland, were arrested by Kentucky State Police troopers on May 6.

According to a criminal complaint filed in the Harlan County District Court, an investigation was conducted and gave “probable cause” showing Smith had forcefully entered a residence and stole two firearms. A warrant for Smith’s arrest was then issued on May 4, which marked Long as a co-defendant.

Both were charged with first-degree burglary, with Long also being charged with two counts failure to appear for previous charges related to operating a motor vehicle without a license.

The two were lodged in the Harlan County Detention Center each with a  $30,000 bond, with 10 percent bail credit.
