Teen charged in store burglary

A Limestone County investigator said an Elkmont teen took his parents’ vehicle, drove to a convenience store and broke into the business.
Sheriff’s Department Lt. Brad Curnutt said the 15-year-old male took cigarettes, bracelets and baseball caps worth $2,000 from Jeff’s Mini Mart on Alabama 99 on Friday or Saturday.
Investigator Jay Looney recovered cigarettes and caps in a pillowcase at the teen’s home, Curnutt said. Authorities charged the teen with third-degree burglary and unauthorized use of a vehicle and released him into his parents’ custody. Further arrests are pending, Curnutt said.
