Detectives arranged to buy some of the items and scheduled a meeting Thursday in the 4500 block of Fredericksburg Road.

Three people showed up with some of the stolen items and were all arrested. Those arrests led police to the 200 block of K Street, where they obtained a search warrant.

It turned out to be a much bigger bust, with police finding $15,000 in stolen fencing and property.
