ST. ALBANS, W.Va. — A 25-year-old man is in custody after allegedly committing two break-ins in St. Albans, including one at a Goodwill store and another at a Kanawha County Schools bus garage.
According to the St. Albans Police Department, Bradley Wayne Hoffman is charged with two counts of breaking and entering, as well as receiving/transferring stolen property and destruction of property.
