On Friday, June 2, 2017 at about 12:30 a.m. Metro 911 received multiple motion alarms inside the Rite Aid in Sissonville, WV. Deputies with the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched. As one Deputy approached the front door she saw a white male inside. That man fled out the rear door of the store.
Despite searching the immediate area, the suspect was not found that night.
Video surveillance and fingerprint evidence later were examined. A suspect, Andrew Todd Taylor, 31 of Sissonville, WV, has been charged with the breaking and entering and grand larceny. Mr. Taylor hid himself in a store room before the store closed, then stole a safe containing thousands of dollars.
Deputies are still searching for Mr. Taylor. Anyone with information on his whereabouts is urged to call 304-357-0169. Tips can be submitted through email at tips@kanawhasheriff.us, or anonymously through our website at www.kanawhasheriff.us.
As is always the case in criminal matters, the charges against Mr. Taylor are merely accusations. He is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty. Attached is a mugshot taken during a previous arrest.
