Man arrested in burglary of Peak 6 Adventure Store south of Forks

PORT ANGELES — Sean V. Della was arrested Monday in the Aug. 8 burglary of the Peak 6 Adventure Store south of Forks.

Della, 26, was booked into the Jefferson County jail for investigation of one count each of second-degree theft, second-degree burglary and second-degree arson.

Several thousands of dollars’ worth of high-end camping and hiking gear and Native American jewelry was taken during the burglary of the outdoors store at 4883 Upper Hoh Road.

A small fire that had been set in the business burned out before causing any major damage, Jefferson County Sheriff’s Detective Ryan Menday said.

A joint investigation of the Forks Police Department, LaPush Police Department, Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office and Clallam County Sheriff’s Office resulted in the recovery of several hundred dollars’ worth of the stolen merchandise from a residence in LaPush, Menday said in a Wednesday news release.

The investigation is ongoing.

Anyone with information on the burglary is asked to phone Menday at 360-385-3831, ext. 773, or email rmenday@co.jefferson.wa.us.
