Out on Bond, Man Gets New Burglary Charge

25-year-old Jeremiah William Arnold, of Georgetown, was arrested by the Scott County Sheriff's Office and charged with Burglary in the third degree and Violation of condition of release.

The suspect was observed sliding under the rear bay door of Bypass Rentals and then exiting the business a short time later.

The suspect was confronted by a Scott Deputy at Speedway on Southgate Drive and confessed to breaking in to look for his check, according to reports.

The defendant is a former employee of Bypass Rentals and was out on bond in connection with two burglaries committed at the business earlier this month.

Uniform Citations from the SCSO state the defendant and two co-defendants, Dustin Wallis and Donald Young, burglarized the business.

Jeremiah Arnold was an employee at the time, gave instructions to his accomplices on how to make entry into the building and left a rear door open. He then pawned 19 items at Dan's Discount Jewelry in Georgetown that were later recovered by a Scott Deputy and he confessed to the crime.

Mr. Arnold faces two counts of Burglary in the third degree (Class D felonies), two counts of Theft by unlawful taking and Violation of condition of release. He is currently being held on $10,000 bond at the Scott County Detention Center.
