Thursday, July 2, 2009 — Badin Police arrested a man recently who now faces several felony charges.
Titus Timothy McLen-don, 31, of 816 Roose-velt St., Badin, was arrested June 18. He faces charges of felony breaking and entering; felony larceny of a firearm; felony possession of a firearm by a felon; and felony failure to register as a sex offender.
According to the police report, McLendon “unlawfully, willfully and feloniously” broke into a residence on Roosevelt Street on June 4 “with the intent to commit a larceny.” The report further states that McLendon stole personal property from the residence totaling approximately $3,851.
