Shannon Baker

On Friday, July 01, 2011, Shannon Baker, age 32, of Harriet, Arkansas, was arrested for 3 counts of Breaking or Entering (Class D felonies) and Theft of property (Class B felony). The arrest stems from multiple thefts from a Marion County business, in which the Marion County Sheriff's Department had been investigating. Baker was caught on video surveillance at the business and it was later discovered he'd sold several pounds of copper wire, which had been taken from the business.

On this date, Baker was interviewed and confessed to Marion County investigators to committing the crimes. Baker was arrested without incident and his bond was set at $25,000.00. Baker posted bond through a local bail bonding company and is tentatively scheduled to appear before the Marion County Circuit Court on July 20, 2011, at 10:00 AM.
