Parsons Charged With Garage Burglary

NEBRASKA CITY – A Nebraska City man, who is scheduled for sentencing Feb. 3 for possession of methamphetamine, is facing a new charge of burglary.

24-year-old Matthew Parsons entered a guilty plea to possession after he was stopped  in July with numerous antiques in his vehicle. In a separate case, he was fined $25 for criminal trespassing in March.

The burglary charge accuses Parsons of forcing a door open on a residential garage on north 17^th Street.

The owner of the garage confronted Parsons and detained him until police arrived.
