  Suspected burglar arrested in Johnston web posted November 30, 2007 JOHNSTON – Johnston Police and Edgefield County Deputies apprehended a suspected burglar Wednesday afternoon. The event played out just after 4 pm when a woman on the 1100 block of Calhoun Street called to report their lawnmower and a weed-eater stolen as she and her husband witnessed the theft. The husband followed the alleged culprits to The Chicken Place on Railroad Avenue in Johnston where he confronted the man seen taking the lawn equipment. After notifying the suspect that the police had been called, reports show, a man later identified as Shannon Hicks, 35, of Lakeview Road ran from the scene leading police on a half-hour manhunt. As Johnston Police Officers and Sheriff’s Deputies converged on the area Johnston Police Chief Chris Aston and Sheriff’s Chief Investigator Randy Doran began checking known locations for Mr. Hicks. Inv. Doran made contact with Mr. Hicks who claimed he was in Ridge Springs. Within moments Chief Aston stated he had Mr. Hicks in custody on Dove Street in Johnston. Mr. Hicks was arrested and transported to the Edgefield County Detention Center where he was held Thursday on a custody order awaiting formal charges of larceny and burglary in the second degree. Mr. Hicks is being charged, Inv. Doran said, for the most recent theft and a previous burglary that occurred earlier this month. Hicks was released from jail just before Thanksgiving after an arrest for forgery in Johnston, Inv. Doran said. No court date was available on Thursday. ©
