TYNGSBOROUGH — Chief Richard D. Howe reports that the Tyngsborough Police Department arrested two individuals in connection with two stolen passports yesterday afternoon.
TAMARA REED, AGE 29, OF TYNGSBOROUGH and JOSEPH ANDERSON, AGE 31, OF TYNGSBOROUGH, were both charged with receiving stolen property.
At approximately 12:30 p.m. today, Tyngsborough Police responded to a call of two males chasing a male and female on Lakeview Avenue.

After a perimeter was established, Tyngsborough Detectives, along with K-9 units from Tyngsborough and Chelmsford, searched the wooded area. Both suspects were found at approximately 1:15 p.m. and taken into custody.
All items from the previous home break, including the victim’s military and personal passports, were recovered.
