A Delaware County Grand Jury has returned an eight-count indictment against 32-year-old William Ryan Yerian of Oak Hill, Ohio.

Yerian was part of a moving crew for several customers who later reported jewelry missing to Columbus police.[widgets_on_pages id=1]

“In one instance, the defendant asked to use the restroom in the master suite,” said Delaware County Prosecutor Carol O’Brien. “The homeowners later discovered a custom-made engagement ring was missing from that area of the home.”

Other items reported missing from various victims include a cluster ring and diamond pendant, a wedding ring, and a blue sapphire ring with diamond accents.

“All the jewelry was located at a Columbus pawn shop,” O’Brien said. “It has all been returned to the rightful owners.”

An arraignment hearing for Yerian has been set for February 8, 2019.
