El Paso man caught cracking safe in police officer's backyard

EUREKA — An El Paso man was indicted in Woodford County last week for burglary charges after allegedly choosing the backyard of an off-duty police officer to attempt to crack a safe he’d stolen from a nearby church.

James E. Fleming, 17, of 278 W. 2nd St. faces up to 15 years if convicted of the felony burglary charge associated with the June 9 incident.

Third St., through an unlocked door and stole a safe, which he carried less than a block to a residential yard where he tried to open the safe with a screw driver.  Full Article
