Kentucky Man Arrested After Several
Area Pop Machines Broken Into
On April 23, 2008 Detectives with the
Highland County Sheriff’s Office and The Hillsboro Police Department received
information from the public regarding area businesses that have been recently
targeted with their pop machines being broken into after hours and money
removed. Detectives following up on the information provided, resulted in
contacting an individual who was staying at the Greystone Motel on US 50 east of
Hillsboro. That individual was identified as David R. Collins age 34 of
Salyersville, Kentucky. Upon further investigation at the Greystone Motel,
several items and tools used in illegally entering pop machines were located in
a room. Evidence recovered has lead investigators to believe that Collins is
involved with pop machine break-ins in Highland, Brown and Adams County as well
as several in the State of Kentucky. Highland County Law Enforcement will be
working with those jurisdictions in an effort to clear as many of these cases as
possible, as there appears to be a large amount. Collins was immediately charged
with one count of Possession of Criminal Tools, a 5th degree felony.
Collins appeared in Hillsboro Municipal Court on April 24, 2008 where his bind
was set at $25,000. As detectives from HCSO and HPD continue to investigate,
they will be working with Highland County Prosecutor James Grandey where the
case will be presented to an upcoming Grand Jury where additional charges are
likely against Collins. Sheriff Ward reminds citizens of Highland County to
continue to call with information regarding criminal activity in Highland
County, as this is case is an example of information provided by the public
directly resulted in several cases being cleared and suspect being arrested.
