Facebook Posts Exposed Burglary Duo, Says Park Ride Police

Police in northern New Jersey say some Facebook posts have led them to a brother-and-sister burglary team.

Kimberly and Michael Edgerton are charged with crimes including burglary, receiving stolen property and hindering apprehension. Police in Park Ridge, Bergen County, allege Kimberly Edgerton used Facebook to find out when some of the victims would be away from home. They say the investigation led them to Michael Edgerton's home, where they found burglary tools and an item matching the description of a stolen item.

Police say other stolen items were traced to Kimberly Edgerton. The Record of Woodland Park  reports Kimberly Edgerton was released on bail Friday, while her brother remained in custody on $15,000 bail.

It was not known if the pair had retained attorneys.
