Authorities arrested a Pulaski County man after he was indicted by a grand jury last week on burglary and theft charges.

William E. Brown, 26, of North Starview Drive, Somerset, was arrested Saturday on a warrant of indictment in connection with a September 2008 incident in which Brown reportedly took several items from a local business.

According to a press release from the Pulaski County Sheriff’s Department, an investigation revealed that Brown and two other individuals broke into a local business on September 19, 2008 and took items valued at more than $300.

Brown was also indicted on additional charges after another investigation revealed that he and another individual entered a residence on November 24, 2008 and stole items valued at more than $300.

The second individual, James E. Housley, 24, of Rhett Butler Drive, Bronston, was indicted by a grand jury for his alleged role in that break-in.

Brown was charged with second-degree burglary, theft by unlawful taking over $300 and two counts of first-degree persistent felony offender. He was lodged in the Pulaski County Detention Center on a $35,000 total bond.
