COLUMBIA — Police arrested an 18-year-old man early Friday morning on suspicion of two counts of second degree burglary, two counts of property damage and two counts of misdemeanor stealing, according to a Columbia Police Department news release.
According to the release, Pryse D. Pribble, of Columbia, was arrested following statements he made related to two burglaries, one at the Break Time at 4 Business Loop 70 E. on Thursday and one at the Midwest Petroleum at 1102 Business Loop 70 E. on Friday.
The burglary at Break Time occurred at about 2:26 a.m. Thursday, where officers found the glass on the front door was broken. A suspect stole items from the store before the police arrived.
