SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - Police in Santa Fe say two people have been arrested in connection with a $40,000 jewelry robbery last weekend.

Detectives interviewed 40-year-old Jacob Paquin, who's jailed on a probation violation.

Police say Paquin admitted being in the surveillance footage but doesn't remember Saturday's theft or where he put the jewelry.

They say Paquin's girlfriend initially denied involvement in the theft but offered to check the trailer home she shares with him for stolen jewelry.

Linda Herrera told police she found a purse in the home with several rings, watches and other items with price tags still attached.

Police say charges of shoplifting, receiving and transferring stolen property, tampering with evidence and conspiracy against Paquin are being forwarded to the Santa Fe County District Attorney's Office with Herrera facing lesser charges.
