A Littleton man was arrested today for a breaking and entering on Crest Lane.

Lieutenant Bobby Martin of the Halifax County Sheriff's Office said a call was received a man was loading items from the break in into a trash can.

The man, who was identified as Akeem Williams, 19, was transporting the items to his home using the trash can. The call was received shortly before 12:30 p.m.
