The Knox County Sheriffs Department says they’ve arrested the man who allegedly has broken into and stolen items from a number of storage lockers in the county and possibly beyond.
Sheriffs officials say they, the FBI, and Warren County law enforcement helped take Steven Strickland, 40, into custody Wednesday on five counts of Burglary, and counts of Possession of Burglary Tools, Retail Theft, Theft, and Criminal Damage to Property.
They didn’t say when the burglaries took place — but that they happened in Abingdon, Altona, East Galesburg, and Knoxville, along with undisclosed locations in Warren County.
Deputies say charges are pending in other counties. Strickland is believed to be held in the Knox County Jail awaiting court proceedings.
