Two men arrested, linked to 13 vehicle prowls in Duluth

Two men were arrested Wednesday morning after Duluth police linked them to a series of vehicle prowls across the community, authorities said.

Duluth police responded about 7:30 a.m. Wednesday, May 6, to a report of a vehicle prowl in which a computer, wallet and checkbook were stolen.

A Community Service Officer identified two suspects and located them near North Central Avenue. Officers responded to the area and were speaking with one suspect when the second suspect fled on foot, police said. Following a brief foot pursuit, officers apprehended him.

Police said 28-year-old Parker Swor was lodged at the St. Louis County Jail on pending charges of computer theft, financial card fraud, fleeing a police officer and theft from a motor vehicle.

Police said 23-year-old Spencer Swor was arrested on a pending charge of felony possession of stolen property.

Investigators later linked the two men to 13 additional vehicle prowls reported in the community, according to police.
