Summary
- A Florida man was arrested for a string of break-ins in Cleveland.
- The MAPS Air Museum and a business were targeted in the burglaries.
- Stolen items included an electric bike and a rifle.
A man from Palatka, Florida, was apprehended on Tuesday following a spree of break-ins across Cleveland. The 43-year-old, Derrick Duck, was linked to at least three incidents: a concession stand, a local business, and the MAPS Air Museum.
Deputies responded to the air museum after an employee discovered a broken lock and missing items, which included an electric bike and a rifle. The bike was later found nearby, and a K-9 unit located the rifle in a wooded area. Similar circumstances were reported at the concession stand, with stolen items also recovered.
Further investigation connected Duck to a business break-in, where the owner reported a man fleeing with his hat and sunglasses. Authorities apprehended Duck near the intersection of Massillon Road and Greensburg Road, subsequently charging him with theft, breaking and entering, theft of a firearm, weapons under disability, and criminal damage.
