BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP — A repairman is facing charges after allegedly stealing a 14-karat gold chain from inside a home in Bloomfield Township.
Glenn Alan Richards, 52, was arraigned in 48th District Court on a felony charge of larceny from a building Feb. 5. He was given a $25,000 personal bond and released from custody.
According to the Bloomfield Township Police Department, the incident occurred while Richards was reportedly repairing a floor in a woman’s bathroom Dec. 21.
After Richards left the Bloomfield Township home, the woman said she noticed her father’s 14K gold chain was missing from a statue kept inside the bathroom.
Police say Richards sold the 14K gold chain to a pawn shop for $200 later that day.
Richards’ next court date is scheduled for Feb. 18. He did not have an attorney on file.
