NATCHEZ — While out of jail on bond for credit card fraud charges, a Natchez man and a Fayette woman were arrested Wednesday charged with burglary.

Brent Barker Geoghegan, 30, and Jessica Ann Bradley, 36, are accused of breaking into a man’s tool shed last week on Woodland Farms Road, reportedly taking a blower, drill set, skill saw, tool kit, pole saw and jump starting box, Adams County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Lt. Cal Green said.

The report was filed on June 9, Green said, but the deputy failed to itemize the value of the items stolen. Green said the shed door was unlocked.

Green said Natchez police recently had arrested the pair for allegedly shoplifting.

When they were arrested, Geoghegan and Bradley were reportedly found in possession of some of the missing items, Green said.

Green said the pair had been out on bond for credit card fraud.

Green said from June 19 to July 22, 2016, the pair reportedly used the card of a person who could have been a relative of Geoghegan’s to make purchases at restaurants, hotels, gas stations and also a bonding company in connection with a misdemeanor charge.

Geoghegan, 120 Woodville Drive, and Bradley, 822 Salem Church Road, Fayette, were charged with burglary (all but dwelling) and burglary (breaking inner door or dwelling).

Geoghegan was in jail Thursday on a $10,000 bond and Bradley was in jail Thursday on a $2,000 bond.
