PITTSFIELD TOWNSHIP, MI - Police have arrested two people they believe were involved in the break-in of Chad Carr's family home and theft of hard drives containing photos of him.

Chad, the grandson of former University of Michigan football coach Lloyd Carr, died at age 5 in 2015 after a 14-month battle with a rare form of brain cancer. His family started the ChadTough Foundation to raise funds and awareness for pediatric brain tumors.

On April 8, the Carr family discovered someone had broken into their home in the in the 1000 block of Bicentennial Parkway of Pittsfield Township and stole a safe containing external hard drives that had photos and videos of their son. Jason Carr's vehicle also was stolen.

The family had been on vacation in Florida.

During the investigation, Pittsfield Township Police located the 2012 Lincoln MKS in Ypsilanti Township and also found the external hard drives.

Two suspects remain in jail Friday, April 14, pending charges and arraignment, according to the police.

"Words can't express how happy we are. These random little memories captured during our five short years with Chad are what we turn to when we need to laugh, cry, or simply spend time with our baby. We are so thankful to have them back," Tammi Carr, Chad's mother, wrote in a statement.

"A huge thank you to the Pittsfield Township Police Department and the officers who were nothing short of amazing. They worked day and night -- a straight 36 hours at one point -- following leads and pushing ahead for our family," she continued.

The family donated a $500 reward for information to the police department, she said.

Carr said news of the break in helped the investigation, and one of the suspects saw the information on the news and told officers where they could find the hard drives after they arrested him.

Pittsfield Township Police said there have been several recent car break-ins in the township that may be related.
