LIVINGSTON COUNTY, Ky. - Investigators say they've arrested a man suspected of being involved with a chop shop operation.

38-year-old Joseph Shane Robinson is charged with multiple counts of receiving stolen property.

Robinson's arrest comes after Kentucky State Police, along with sheriffs from three area departments, searched a home in Livingston County, Kentucky Thursday.  The home was located on Duley Road, near Hampton.

Police say they found two stolen Harley Davidson motorcycles on the property.  The motorcycles were reported stolen, one from Marshall County, the other from the state of Ohio.

They also found other parts believed to have been removed from other motorcycles.
 
Other stolen property, including an enclosed trailer and electronics from two other thefts, was also recovered.

After his arrest, Robinson was taken to the McCracken County Jail. 

At last check, a bond amount had not been set.
