Eldon Man Allegedly Tried to Sell Air Conditioners Stolen from M-U Extension Office

A 27-year-old from the Eldon area, already with a history in the courtroom, faces several more felony charges after being taken into custody this week. Courthouse records show three new cases filed, on Tuesday, against Johney Brown. Brown is charged with felony burglary and stealing in one case, felony possession of a controlled substance in a second case, and another felony stealing in the third case. In one of the cases, it’s alleged that Brown dismantled and took two air conditioning units valued at $5,000 from the M-U Extension Office in Tuscumbia, and then tried to sell them for scrap
