Lack of evidence prompts dropping of burglary charge There was insufficient evidence to prosecute Roy Forshee of Bonne Terre for the Oct. 18 burglary at the Robinson Drug Store in Flat River, according to Tom Ray, assistant prosecuting attorney. Forshee was charged with second degree burglary and stealing, Ray said. At a preliminary hearing Friday in Associate Circuit Court, Judge James E. Pennoyer ruled there was not enough evidence to link Forshee to the burglary, Ray said.

The case of another man linked to the burglary, Albert McNorton, was taken under advisement, Ray added. Forshee and McNorton were arrested Oct. 24 by sheriff's deputies and the Flat River police at an apartment on Reuter Street in Flat River. Ray said Forshee was found asleep in the front room of the apartment. Articles from the Robinson Drug Store break-in were found in the kitchen after a search by police officers, reports show.

Ray said there was not enough corroborative evidence such as fingerprints to link Forshee or McNorton to the scene of the burglary. He added that Forshee has not been seen at the apartment before, so could not be positively linked to the stolen items. McNorton had been staying at the apartment for a few weeks, Ray said, so it was possible that the prosecution could prove recent possession of stolen property. A defense motion to rule the search of the apartment as illegal was turned down, Ray said. While officers did not have a search warrant, they had the permission of the tenant of the apartment, with whom McNorton was staying, to search the property.

Forshee is still- facing another charge, passing a forged prescription, with a preliminary hearing scheduled for Wednesday. He is free on $5,000 bond. Ray. indicated other charges might be filed in the case. "We'll have to take a look at what we have," Ray said.

In addition, he said he had a fight with an adult after the adult called him a name.
