Henderson County sheriff’s deputies charged two South Carolina men with multiple breaking and entering felonies after a real estate agency reported a theft in progress in the Finley Cove Road area.

The sheriff's office received a call from the Realtor that when he went to show a home that is listed for sale in the area he observed a U-Haul truck in the driveway. Knowing the home to be vacant, he was suspicious as to why the U-Haul truck was there and telephoned the Sheriff’s Office.

Officers from the Henderson County Sheriff’s Office arrived on scene and found two individuals at the residence in the process of loading furnishings from the home into the U-Haul truck. Through the assistance of the agent that called in the report officers were able to contact the homeowner, who is living out of state, and were advised that no one had permission to be at the residence.

Further investigation revealed that these two individuals had rented the U-Haul truck for the purpose of breaking into the home and removing the furnishings, the sheriff's office said. Officers took the following two individuals into custody and charged them.

Rychunn Foster, 21, of Greer, South Carolina, is charged with felony breaking & entering, felony larceny, felony conspiracy to commit breaking & entering and damage to real property.


William “Xavier” Stalls, 18, of Piedmont, South Carolina, is charged with felony breaking & entering, felony larceny, felony conspiracy to commit breaking & entering and damage to real property.

Both individuals were jailed under a $20,000.00 secured bond.
