A Weldon and Garysburg man have been charged with breaking into the Family Dollar in Weldon, one allegedly going back to take more items.

Captain James Avens of the Weldon Police Department said Kunta Kinte Shearin, 33, faces two counts each of breaking and entering, larceny and possession of stolen goods. Shearin, of Weldon, also faces charges in Roanoke Rapids for allegedly stealing his mother's car and television.

Reginald Tyrice Edwards, 31, of Garysburg, faces one count each of the charges Shearin faces.

Edwards and Shearin around 4 a.m. Friday allegedly used a tire iron to break into the store and stole watches, cell phones and a DVD player.

Around 5 a.m. Shearin allegedly went back to the store and stole more of the same items, according to Avens. The first time the store was broken into the alarm did not go off. It did the second time.

Avens said Weldon police received a tip from Roanoke Rapids, which was working on the case involving the TV and car. Most of the property was recovered.

Shearin was jailed on $50,000 bond and Edwards on $15,000 bond. They have October 12 court dates.
