MACON, Ga. — A Macon man is being held without bond on charges that he burglarized two Family Dollar locations in the last month.

According to a news release, deputies arrested 49-year-old Louis Huff minutes after a burglary at the Family Dollar at 3567 Houston Avenue around 2 a.m. Saturday.

Deputies found Huff in an abandoned trailer in the 2800-block, and they say he tried to run away when they attempted to get him into custody.

After further investigation, they found Huff also broke into the Family Dollar location at 2123 Pio Nono Ave. on January 27.
