Resume:
Millsboro, DE- The Delaware State Police have arrested a Laurel woman in connection with the August 2011 burglary of a Millsboro liquor store.

The investigation into this incident began on August 16th after troopers were called to respond to the Gumboro Liquors located in the 38000 block of Millsboro Highway in Millsboro for the report of a burglary. Responding troopers were advised by the business owner who discovered the burglary that an unknown suspect had entered an unlocked door of the business earlier in the morning. Once inside the suspect responded to the video surveillance system and disabled it. The suspect then proceeded to remove an undisclosed amount of cash from the store register before fleeing. The business owner advised troopers that the suspect was captured on video prior to disabling it and that the person resembled an employee of the store, Treena Kunkel.

Through further investigation detectives were able to positively identify Kunkel as the subject who committed the burglary and obtained a warrant for her arrest.

On Monday, November 21, Treena Kunkel was arrested at her residence without incident by members of the Sussex County Governor’s Task Force. She was then arraigned at JP Court 2 and released on $5000.00 unsecured bail.
