Durham, N.C. — A man wanted on outstanding warrants for larceny and breaking and entering is believed to be hiding in an attic of an apartment building, located at 1014 Sherwood Drive, Durham Police spokeswoman Kammie Michaels said Thursday afternoon.

Authorities believe the suspect, whose name has not been released, did not currently live in the building, but may have lived in the complex at one time. The building was evacuated.

State to begin handling cable TV complaints
Posted: 25 minutes ago

Raleigh, N.C. — Increasing competition means communities across the state soon will have less input into what their local cable television companies air and how much they charge for their services.

Under a 3-year-old state law, as soon as a competitor emerges for an incumbent cable provider, the cable company can terminate its municipal franchise agreement.

Time Warner Cable canceled its agreement with Raleigh last week, a month after AT&T rolled out its digital television system in the Triangle. Time Warner's franchise agreement was previously scheduled to expire in November.

The move means Raleigh can no longer require Time Warner to provide service to low-income or low-density areas or resolve customer complaints, said Michael Williams, cable administrator for the city.

Durham, N.C. — Durham police are trying to find Robert Ebey Taylor, 31, who is wanted on break-in and fraud charges.

Police charged Taylor, of Sana Court, with breaking into an occupied house near Barbee Road around noon on Jan. 28.

The resident told officers that someone kicked in her door and she confronted a man inside the house. The man and an accomplice fled without taking anything, police said.

Officers arrested Gilbert Rochelle Jr., 20, of Lynn Road shortly after the break-in was reported.

Investigators charged Rochelle and Taylor each with breaking and entering, attempted larceny and injury to property. Taylor is also charged with obtaining property by false pretense.

Anyone with information on Taylor’s whereabouts is asked to call Investigator A.M. Sterling at 919-560-4415, ext. 233, or Crime Stoppers at 919-683-1200. Crime Stoppers pays cash rewards for information leading to arrests in felony cases, and callers never have to identify themselves.
