More charges for Eichelberger

Caddo detectives have filed more charges against a man who was arrested Thursday for breaking into vehicles in south Caddo Parish.

Today, Detective Andy Scoggins charged Adam K. Eichelberger with simple burglary of an inhabited dwelling for breaking into a residence where a woman was asleep inside. The offense occurred on August 7. The woman said she heard a noise around 2:30 a.m. and got up to investigate. She found Eichelberger inside her house in the 5400 block of Asbury. The woman tried to grab Eichelberger but he slipped away, taking with him a bag loaded with items from her house. 

Eichelberger, 21, was originally arrested on Thursday morning after concerned citizens called the Shreveport Police Department regarding a suspicious person parked in the parking lot of a south Shreveport gas station. When police arrived they made contact with Eichelberger, who was seated in his car. Inside the vehicle that Eichelberger was driving, they located several items such as a GPS system, a vehicle stereo system, and two handguns. Eichelberger admitted to officers that he had taken these items during vehicle burglaries committed in the parish.

Caddo Parish deputies responded and took Eichelberger into custody. Caddo detectives responded as well, and Eichelberger admitted to them that he took the items from numerous UNLOCKED vehicles in the Deepwoods Subdivision. Deputies also recovered a large amount of Xanax from Eichelberger's vehicle.

Eichelberger was transported to the Caddo Correctional Center where he was booked into jail for simple burglary, possession of schedule IV CDS with intent to distribute, and being a felon in possession of a firearm. He was also booked as an in-state fugitive relating to parole violation.

He is also under investigation by Shreveport Police and faces charges for crimes committed in the city.
