36-year-old Benjamin Reed Heaslip of Commerce was charged with two felony counts of second-degree burglary, jail records show.
On Friday, July 1, officers executed a search warrant and arrest warrant at a Jackson County home. Rabun County deputies were assisted by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, Commerce Police Department, and Toccoa Police Department.
After two days in jail, Heaslip was released on $15,000 bond.
