On Jan. 1, Dillon Bennett, 32, and Lauren Crawford, 28, both from El Dorado Springs, were arrested on St. Clair County warrants charging them each with class C felony burglary second degree and class D felony property damage first degree. Bond is set at $25,000 cash or surety in each case.
The charges stem from an incident the day before when St. Clair County deputies were dispatched to a residence on SW 101 Road in reference to a stealing in progress. The property is owned by David Lile and the residence was recently destroyed by fire.
Deputies arrived on
scene and located Bennett and Crawford sitting in a truck filled with
metal scrap items taken from the structure. The investigation revealed
the individuals did not have permission to be on the property.
