Two men accused of stealing up to $200,000 worth of items from a rug store earlier this month were arrested by Redwood City officers, according to police.

The Medallion Rug Outlet on Convention Way in Redwood City was burglarized on June 1, the Redwood City Police Department said this week. The store specializes in handmade collectible carpets. Three suspects can be seen on surveillance video taking several items valued at between $150,000 and $200,000.

Police believe that two of the people on the video are Redwood City residents Faustino Dennis Ayala, 40, and Scott William Llewellyn, 32. On Tuesday, Ayala was found at a local encampment and was arrested. Police allege a large amount of stolen property linked to the rug store burglary was recovered there.
