An arrest was made on a burglary charge Tuesday after video surveillance captured a man allegedly inside a shop on Douglas Street.
Photos were sent to police showing a while male suspect wearing a backpack approaching the building and later leaving while carrying what appeared to be electrical wiring.
Hopkinsville police located 34-year old Shawn Shier of Hopkinsville in the woods just north of the shop and he matched the description of the man in the photos, according to the report.
Shier denied going into the building and stealing the wire and said he was only in the woods to go fishing, with the report saying he had a broken fishing pole and no license.
Shier was arrested and charged with third-degree burglary, entry onto land to fish without permission and fishing without a license.
