Local Man Faces Charges for Burglarizing The Georgetown Flea Market

A local area resident, Christopher Miller, faces multiple charges for his alleged involvement in the burglary this past weekend of The Georgetown Flea Market. The most serious of those charges being Burglary in the second degree - a Class C felony.

The Georgetown Police received a call on Saturday night for a burglary in progress at 150 Edwards Ave. The suspect, according to the Georgetown Police report, had apparently hid himself at closing time; only to be discovered by one of the employees in a routine check of the premises to ensure no one had remained.

The suspect then, using a pocket knife, cut through the screening of three booths and took a glass jar of change - "valued at $100.00" - but cut himself in the process and left the knife at the scene. As he exited the building, leaving a trail of blood, he was subsequently apprehended at the corner of Gilbert and Edwards Ave.

The arresting officer found a flannel shirt and the missing jar at the same location as the arrest. When asked to identify himself by Georgetown Police the suspect gave them a different name. After being warned by the officer that doing so again was illegal, he persisted in giving a false name, and was arrested at 9:45 p.m.

Miller has been charged with Burglary in the second degree, Theft by unlawful taking, and Giving a peace officer a false name or address. He's currently being held at The Scott County Jail pending a court hearing. More to come on this case as it develops.

Georgetown Teen Faces Felony Charge of Receiving Stolen Property

If you woke up last Sunday morning in the Georgetown areas of Bradford, Colony, and Stamping Ground to find your car doors wide open there was a reason why. Your vehicle had been burglarized.

As reported by the Georgetown News-Graphic there was a rash of vehicle break-ins in several areas. As it would seem no coincidence - as they all happened the same night - they were indeed related. And the Georgetown Police made quick work apprehending the suspect within a few hours and returning most of the stolen property.

The Georgetown City Police say they put the man responsible for breaking into 20 cars behind bars.
In the early hours of Sunday morning, approximately 20 vehicles were broken into in the Bradford, Colony and Stamping Ground areas, a statement from the department announced. Officer Teresa Hollon, Officer Tim Banta, Sergeant Chris Zirbes and Sergeant Mike Wagoner were able to quickly recover the stolen property and arrested Aaron Michael Adams, 19 on charges stemming from the break-ins.

A Georgetown Police Uniform Citation obtained by this blog shows that the suspect, 19-year-old Aaron Michael Adams, actually "admitted to taking the property". He was found in violation of Kentucky Statute 514.110 and charged with one count of Receiving Stolen Property.

Scott County Circuit Court records reveal that the defendant posted a $5000 bond and is on house arrest pending an October 16th hearing  at 1:30 p.m before Judge Mary Jane Phelps. More to come on this case as it develops.
