Gillespie said he had gone to his neighbor at 210 Seigler Rd. across the street to see if she had seen anyone; and while he was there, he spotted what he believed to be his wheelbarrow in the back yard of 208 Seigler Road. HE asked Deputy Wilkinson to approach the site and ask about the items. The property owner, identity withheld by the ACSO, stated that the wheelbarrow was his but that the items in it were unfamiliar. He told the deputy that his brother was also at home, and they went inside.
