Police have recovered two World Series rings belonging to Cleveland Indians manager Terry Francona.
The Pima County Sheriff’s Department in Tucson, Ariz., made an arrest Tuesday night tied to a burglary of Francona’s Tucson-area home, in which his 2004 and 2007 World Series rings from his time as the Boston Red Sox manager were stolen.
Francona reported the rings stolen Nov. 7, though the burglary is believed to have taken place earlier in the year.
The sheriff’s department said in a statement that investigators discovered the rings had been sold to a sports memorabilia store in Phoenix by someone asking for $40,000 per ring.
The suspect was arrested and charged Tuesday with three felonies: second-degree burglary, theft, and trafficking stolen property.
