The mattresses were stolen from Foothills Brokerage on Western Avenue and an employee of the company reported seeing a woman attempting to sell the mattresses at a flea market in Alcoa from a flatbed trailer attached to a Ford pickup truck. The stolen mattresses were also being offered for resale on Facebook. After a meeting was orchestrated through Facebook to purchase the mattresses, officers stopped the truck, which was pulling a trailer carrying the stolen mattresses. The driver, 48-year-old Jack Toomire, was charged with felony theft and also had an outstanding warrant out of Jefferson County for violation of probation. The passenger, 46-year-old Danyell Daniel, was also charged with felony theft. Daniel ran from the truck after the initial traffic stop but was quickly apprehended.
