On August 23, 2024, the Randolph County Sheriff’s Office responded to Julian Airport Rd., Liberty, in reference to a larceny in progress. Upon arrival, deputies gathered information and detained Nicholas Anthony Berry, a former employee.
The victim/representative explained that Berry had taken the company’s work ATV and driven it to another building on-site. He followed Berry into the building and observed him holding approximately 500 pounds of copper. Berry then dropped the copper, exited, and attempted to flee on the ATV but the representative had blocked the ATV and taken the key until deputies arrived shortly after. During a subsequent search of Berry’s vehicle, two batteries and a power saw with the company’s name on it, were located.
He was arrested and transported to the Randolph County Detention Center where the magistrate found probable cause for felony larceny from a construction site, attempted felony larceny, and second-degree trespassing. He received a $5,000 secured bond with a first appearance set for August 28, 2024, in Randolph County District Court.
