HIGHLAND LAKES NEWSPAPERS

A Kingsland man was arrested on Sunday on warrants issued by Marble Falls police in connection with the Atkins Pharmacy burglary earlier this month.

The Austin Police Department arrested William Franklin Buse, 48, on charges of burglary of a building, a state jail felony, after Marble Falls police said the owner of the business had identified him due to a previous encounter at the store at 701 Third Street.

According to an arrest affidavit, police recovered surveillance footage from the scene of the crime which captured images of the suspect during the burglary.

“Upon review of the surveillance video, (the owner) recognized the suspect as an individual he'd spoken with in the parking lot of the pharmacy the previous day,” wrote Sgt. Trisha Ratliff in the affidavit.

Surveillance footage from the previous day was reviewed and police confirmed the suspect was the same individual.
