Detective B.C. Griffin, who investigated the case, said the charges reflect three residential break-ins, a business break-in and vehicle break-in.
Electronics and prescription pills were taken in the break-ins, Griffin said, the motivation behind them reportedly stealing for drug money.
The crimes occurred soon after Allen was released from jail the evening of September 7 and continued until his arrest on September 10. His has numerous court dates in Halifax County for other crimes he allegedly committed.
The new set of charges also include a count of second-degree arson where he allegedly burned down a storage shed, which was declared a total loss, Griffin said. The motive behind burning the shed was not clear, he said.
The charges also include the following, Hall said: Breaking and entering, larceny after breaking and entering, breaking and entering a motor vehicle, larceny, two counts of possession of stolen property, two counts of possession of a Schedule II controlled substance, possession of a schedule IV controlled substance, and possession of cocaine.
The charges, Hall said, arise from further investigation of crimes reported to sheriff’s office.
He is scheduled to appear in court Wednesday.
