SUMMERS COUNTY, W.Va. – A Summers County man has been charged in connection with a March 16 breaking and entering and arson case at a Dollar General store in Nimitz.
Summers County Chief Deputy T.S. Adkins said Isaac G. Brown, 20, of Jumping Branch is charged with second-degree arson, breaking and entering, felony destruction of property and petit larceny.
