HARRISON COUNTY, Ohio —

The Harrison County Sheriff's Office is asking the public for help in finding two men in connection with a rash of burglaries throughout the county.

Jonathan Grim and Douglas Grim, who are cousins, are suspected of several burglaries.

Sheriff Ron Myers said there have been about eight residential burglaries -- one as recent as Tuesday -- and the areas hit the most are near state Route 250 in Deersville, Archer Township and Hopedale.

Myers said a lot of firearms were stolen, as well as cash from safes. None of the items have been recovered.


"We're working with some of the pawn shops and so forth to try and locate some of the items. We understand that they could be as far north as Cleveland, where the firearms could be," Myers said.

A woman, Tammy Logsdon, is in jail in connection with the crimes, but the two men remain at large. Myers said investigators believe Logsdon waited in the group's vehicle during the commission of the breakings and enterings.


Douglas Grim recently served eight years in prison on similar crimes in Jefferson County. The sheriff said Douglas Grim has a tattoo on his neck, which may help people identify him.


Myers said there may be more arrests as the investigation continues.


As of now, the sheriff said, officials want to track down the two cousins. Their last known address was on Addy Road, and the sheriff said the men are likely in the Hopedale or Cadiz area.
