DeLand police officers and Volusia County deputies worked together to arrest two subjects following a rash of vehicle and residential burglaries on DeLand’s north end. 

Brandon Larry (04/07/2002), from Orlando, and Day’Arean Lynum (10/23/2001), from Leesburg, were arrested Friday (7/19/24) after two successful tire deflation device deployments, assistance from Air1 and K-9 Zoie that tracked them into the woods.
