FARMINGTON — A man from Strong faces charges after a surveillance video allegedly showed him breaking into a locked mailbox Wednesday and taking an item, police secretary Bonnie Pomeroy said Thursday.

Curtis Moody, 42, was arrested on charges of criminal mischief, theft by unauthorized taking and violating condition of release, she said.

He allegedly attempted to pry open one mailbox and got into another at an apartment complex on Fairbanks Road, she said.

Officer Kim Bates put out a warrant for Moody’s arrest and he was located later Wednesday at a residence in Strong, Pomeroy said.

It is believed the item taken from one of the boxes was a prescription, she said.

Two mailboxes were damaged.

Moody was still at the Franklin County jail on Thursday afternoon.
