FLORENCE – Two men who were working on renovations at the Florence Police Station are in jail after they were accused of taking 48 pounds of marijuana from the evidence locker.
Scott Raymond Burgert, 45, Old Cloverdale Road, Florence, and Bradley Thomas Jones, 40, Calhoun Street, Florence, are both charged with first-degree theft of property and trafficking marijuana, Florence Police Chief Rick Singleton said.
The two men were part of a construction crew involved in remodeling the first floor of the police department, officials said.
“I’ve always said I would put everything on the table (in regards to the department) — the good, the bad and the ugly,” Singleton said. “Today is the ugly.”
