Granite Shoals police name suspects in weekend crimes
GRANITE SHOALS — Fingerprints have connected a Granite Shoals man already in trouble with the law after a church break-in with a recent burglary at a boat repair shop, according to police.
After reviewing fingerprint results Nov. 21 from the Department of Public Safety crime lab, officers charged Gregory DeLoach, 26, in a warrant in connection with a burglary Sept. 4 at the RT Marine Shop, a news release said.
A thief stole a camera and about $100 from the shop, located in the 6900 block of RR 1431, investigators said.
Sgt. Gary Boshears processed the crime scene and continued to follow the case, officers said.
DeLoach is already in federal custody on an unrelated gun charge, police said.
Authorities described DeLoach as a suspect in a string of past burglaries and other related charges in Burnet and Llano counties.
Investigators have charged the Granite Shoals man along with three others in a burglary of First Baptist Church of Kingsland in April.
A safe containing $600 in Ugandan currency earmarked for African orphans was taken from the church and later recovered alongside a road.
