STEPHENSON, WV (LOOTPRESS) — Two people were allegedly captured on surveillance video attempting to enter a Wyoming County home before one climbed inside and searched the kitchen, according to a complaint filed with the sheriff’s office.
The homeowner reported the incident September 20, 2026, and provided footage identifying the individuals as Dewayne Allen Shrewsbury and Debra Ann McKinney.
According to the complaint, video recorded around 2 a.m. showed Shrewsbury pulling on the front door. McKinney then allegedly retrieved a knife from her purse and attempted to pry a padlock on the door.
After those attempts failed, Shrewsbury was reportedly seen pulling on another door before pushing open a window.
Footage recorded around 2:14 a.m. allegedly showed McKinney walking through the living room from the direction of that window and entering the kitchen. A kitchen camera captured her looking around and going through a box before she returned toward the window.
The homeowner reported that five packs of cigarettes were missing and that empty cigarette packs had been left on the kitchen table. The window used to enter the residence was also reported broken.
