Three people were arrested last week in connection with a residential burglary in which a number of weapons were stolen.

According to the arrest report, Laura Hanson, 22, a driver from Carson City, was arrested on suspicion of possession of stolen property and sale of stolen property.

Nicholas Morrow, 23, of Carson City, was arrested on suspicion of possession of stolen property, ex-felon in possession of stolen property and misdemeanor violation of a suspended sentence.

Tacara Aspden, 24, a certified nursing assistant from Dayton, was arrested on suspicion of felony possession of stolen property.

According to the arrest report, Hanson arranged to sell a stolen weapon to a police informant Friday morning in a south Carson casino parking lot.

Morrow allegedly stole the guns from a home on Valley View Drive on March 30.

When police stopped the vehicle driven by Hansen after the alleged sale, Aspden was the passenger and went with Morrow and Hansen to deliver the stolen gun, the report states.

Officers recovered at least six weapons hidden near a westbound turnout on Highway 395 near Spooner Summit.

Also recovered was a camera taken in the burglary, the report states.
