Charges pending for two teenagers who broke into Arab businesses
In a matter of three hours Tuesday night, two 17-year-olds found themselves in hot water.
Currently, charges are pending on two teenage bandits who allegedly broke into three downtown Arab businesses and one business in Cullman County.
According to reports from the Arab police, the crime spree began around midnight Tuesday and the looters hit a Jet-Pep Convenience store, the Three Guys Grill restaurant and the Arab Public Library.
Library officials say this is the third break-in in two years.
While police believe that money was the main motive, only a small amount was taken.
In celebration of the opening of construction on new hatchery and administration buildings at the Claude Peteet Mariculture Center in Gulf Shores, Gov. Robert Bentley, fourth from right, joined in the ground-breaking ceremony. Others participating, from left, are: John Rigrish of HOAR Project Management, Chris Denson of Marine Resources, Gulf Shores Mayor Robert Craft, Marine Resources Director Chris Blankenship, Conservation Commissioner N. Gunter Guy Jr., Richard Simonton of Krebs Architects, and Terry Boyd of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources.
