Westland Police arrested Mounier Hassan and Blal Taleb after raiding the store at Warren and Venoy, reports Camille Amiri of Fox 2.
"This investigation started in September of 2017 when the Westland Police Department received information Bank Pawn Shop and Exchange was buying and selling stolen merchandise," said Sgt. Timothy Liess.
