What began as a burglary investigation in a small Alabama town expanded to Dothan and possibly the length of the country and led to three people facing charges, authorities said. “It just kept snowballing,” Houston County Sheriff Donald Valenza said.

After taking Williams into custody, sheriff’s deputies executed multiple search warrants in Houston County that turned up an unidentified amount of cash, 5 1/2 pounds of marijuana, a Glock 10mm handgun, nine fraudulent U.S. Treasury checks, two fraudulent money orders and drug paraphernalia, said Valenza.
