Richard Croft/Brown Co Sheriff's Office

(KNZA)--A jury trial has been set for an Atchison man charged in connection with a string of burglaries and thefts in the southeast part of Brown County in 2024.

During a hearing Monday in Brown County District Court, a three-day trial was set for 42-year-old Richard Croft, beginning August 25.

Croft pleaded not guilty last month to three counts of burglary, one count of felony theft and two counts of misdemeanor theft.

He was arrested last November following a joint investigation by the Brown County Sheriff's Department and surrounding law enforcement agencies.

Stolen property from the Brown County burglaries was recovered after a search warrant was served in Jefferson County.

Croft remains held in the Jackson County Jail as a courtesy to Brown County.
