\nJoanna D. McKenzie was jailed overnight after police say they found methamphetamine and stolen property from a shoplifting spree during a traffic stop in Centralia last night.<\/p>\n

The 32-year-old Morton woman was sentenced last month for attempted burglary in connection with the night in April when an Onalaska property owner opened fire on her and her husband after he discovered them outside his house.<\/p>\n

McKenzie escaped uninjured but her husband Thomas McKenzie, 56, was fatally shot.<\/p>\n

Police contacted Joanna McKenzie and Patricia R. Smathers, 33, also of Morton, about 11:20 p.m. last night on the 1000 block of Harrison Avenue, according to the Centralia Police Department.<\/p>\n

The woman were allegedly in possession of stolen property from the Olympia area and drugs. They were arrested for possession of methamphetamine and booked into the Lewis County Jail about 2 a.m. today.<\/p>\n

Centralia police are continuing to investigate and will be working with other agencies to return the stolen goods, police reported this morning.<\/p>\n

A trial date is set for early next year for Ronald A. Brady, the Onalaska man charged in the death of Thomas McKenzie and assault of Joanna McKenzie.
