Two Bartlesville brothers say their late mother’s house was broken into, and the thieves stole thousands of dollars of precious family heirlooms.

Chris and Jeff Cauthen tell our news partners, News On 6, the thieves took things like their mom’s fruitcake recipe, her jewelry, and guitars they made in high school.

Home security footage shows three men taking several items from a house in Bartlesville. The home belonged to the Cauthens’ mother, and Jeff lives there right now.

Chris says it’s especially heartbreaking because Jeff is a teacher and has spent nearly 30 years giving back to his community.

In addition to the heirlooms, they also stole magic tricks Jeff uses to teach and a shotgun belonging to their grandfather.

They believe the thieves stole about $7,000 worth of items, and they are still finding things missing.

They are grateful they had cameras and hope others will do the same.

Bartlesville Police have identified the three suspects as Jase Murguia, Zachary Kight, and Landon Barnard.

All three have warrants out for their arrest.
