The police were aided in arresting the men by the receipt of an anonymous letter, together with a parcel containing a number of watches and rings. They interviewed Applebee, who admitted sending the letter, and participating in the offence at the instigation of McDonald. The latter took full responsibility for the burglary, which he organised as he was out of work. Both pleaded guilty.
