A Wayne County couple faces a litany of charges after sheriff's deputies found their car stuck in the mud near a residence that had been broken into in Mount Olive on Friday.
Property stolen from inside the residence was located in the vehicle, according to a press release issued today.
The vehicle was located along Country Club Road.
