AUBURN, Neb. (AP) — A southeast Nebraska man is accused of stealing thousands of dollars’ worth of brass from his employer and selling it, including to a recycler in Pottawattamie County. Nemaha County, NE., court records say 26-year-old Justin Heard is charged with 11 counts of burglary and three of theft. Heard’s next court hearing is scheduled for Tuesday. A court document says surveillance shows Heard loading brass into a vehicle at Magnolia Metal in rural Auburn. Investigators say he sold the brass for nearly $14,000 to a recycler in Council Bluffs. The records say the crimes began occurring in August.
