Man arrested in string of Xenia business break-ins
Xenia police have arrested a suspect in connection with a string of business break-ins that occurred in the past two weeks.
Jeremy D. Hilderbrand, 27, of Xenia, was arrested at 1 a.m. Sunday, Dec. 6, on three felony counts of breaking and entering and one count of possession of criminal tools.
The Cassano’s Pizza on North Allison Street was broken into on both Nov. 27 and Dec. 2. Then late Friday and early Saturday, Xenia police got reports of break-ins at Lee’s Famous Recipe on West Main Street, TCN Behavioral Health on West Market Street, and the Veterans of Foreign Wars post on West Second Street.
The next day, at 1 a.m. Sunday, officer Rob Kelley found a broken window at the VFW post at 850 W. Second St., and police set up a perimeter around the building, suspecting the building had been broken into for a second straight day. Xenia police Capt. Scott Anger said officers found Hilderbrand inside and arrested him without incident.
Anger said police have connected Hilderbrand with both break-ins at the VFW post and the Dec. 2 Cassano’s break-in. Investigators are probing whether Hilderbrand was responsible for the other break-ins, but Anger said at least one other suspect may be involved in some of those cases.
Hilderbrand had an initial court appearance Monday and is being held in the Greene County Jail on a $10,000 cash bond. He has previous convictions for misdemeanor theft and drug charges.
