An 18-year-old Missouri teen is behind bars after police say his GPS bracelet connected him to nine burglaries committed in a single night, authorities said.
Leslie James III is being held without bail at the St. Louis City Justice Center, according to court records.
He has been charged with 31 felony and misdemeanor counts including burglary, stealing and damaging property, jail records show.
Police allege James and two accomplices hit nine businesses on April 10, breaking windows, stealing cash and possessing a deadly weapon, according to a criminal complaint filed by prosecutors.
The locations included popular St. Louis bars, eateries and a doughnut shop, according to local reports.
