Items stolen from apartments
A Charleston man was accused of stealing clothes, a flat-screen TV, a DVD player, sunglasses, a calculator and a two bicycles from a Wraggborough apartment complex Sunday night.
Charleston police were called to a Judith Street apartment shortly before 10 p.m. A resident reported that someone had come into the lobby of the apartment building and was stealing bicycles. The thief also took a TV, clothing and other electronic goods from at least two of the apartments in the building, police were told.
The victims told police they watched through a window as the man rode away from the building on the second stolen bicycle.

Steven Lakeith Simmons, 44, of Cannon Street was charged with first-degree burglary and grand larceny, police public information officer Charles Francis said.
