ROCHESTER - Two Rochester men were arrested on Wednesday in a rash of motor vehicle thefts and burglaries that occurred in the city this month.

Zachary Sutton, 23, and Joshua Day, 25, were each charged with one count each of felony level receiving stolen property.

The two are alleged to have had in their possession more than $1,500 worth of property that was stolen from the various incidents.

Joshua Day turned himself into police Wednesday afternoon at the police department after learning of the warrant.

Rochester officers were also able to locate Zachary Sutton later in the afternoon and take him into custody as well.
