| Dustin Eugene Newell |
On the morning of Saturday, January 24th at approximately 7:31 A.M., Clinton Police were called to a residence in the 300 block of West Gravel Street. At that location they found that the homeowner had detained a man he caught breaking into and burglarizing his garage. The man was identified as 26 year old Clinton resident, Dustin Eugene Newell who is also known as Cheeseburger.
The victim had discovered Newell while he was in the process of removing several items from the garage and stacking them a short distance away. Those items were recovered there. Several other items stolen from the garage were also recovered from a residence at 421 West Short Street. It is believed that Newell had at least one accomplice in the theft but they were not identified.
Property that was stolen in at least one other burglary, a pair of boots, was being worn by Newell. There have been over 20 similar burglaries in the Clinton area in the past few months. Clinton Police Detectives continue to investigate Newell and possible accomplices. If you have recently purchased any property from him or associates of his, or if you have any information regarding these burglaries, please call the Clinton Police Department at 660-885-2679.
Newell was arrested for 24 hour investigation of 2nd degree Burglary, receiving stolen property and outstanding Clinton Municipal warrants.
