HENDERSON â A Bertie County man is facing criminal charges in connection with two break-ins this year that targeted the N.C. Department of Transportationâs maintenance yard on Gillburg Road in Vance County.
Wesley Edward White, of Windsor, North Carolina, faces 40 counts of breaking and entering, felonious larceny of motor vehicle parts and larceny of non-ferrous precious metals, Vance County Sheriff Curtis Brame said.
White is being held in the Bertie County Jail on a secured bond of almost $1.3 million, and authorities expect to lodge more charges against him in the coming weeks, Brame said.
The Gillburg DOT yard wasnât the only one targeted, as there were similar crimes in a number of other counties, the sheriff said.
