WASHBURN – A local man was arrested in connection with a recent burglary at a Washburn business.
“Travis White, 23, last known residence given is Presque Isle, was arrested for burglary and theft in connection with a burglary at White’s Exxon, located on Main St./Route 164 in Washburn,” said Washburn Police Chief Doug Conroy. Conroy said the theft occurred sometime between the evening of Nov. 28 and the early morning hours of Nov. 29. He did not specify how White entered the business.
“Trooper Kim Espling was the responding officer. He did the preliminary investigation, before turning it over to us,” said Conroy.
Items taken included a small amount of cash, which Conroy said has since been recovered.
White was transported to the Aroostook County Jail in Houlton. An arraignment date was set for Jan. 16, 2009 at Caribou Superior Court.
