Princeton, N.C. — A 17-year-old Princeton man was charged Friday in connection with a Thursday break-in in Rosewood.

Darian Lee Friend was charged with felony breaking and entering and assault with a deadly weapon, the Wayne County Sheriff's Office said. He was held under a $5,000 secured bond.

A Rosewood resident told deputies he heard a noise at his back door on Thursday. The resident went to investigate and found a man had pried open the back door. The armed intruder struggled with the resident before fleeing.

I agree the bond is very low, however it wasn't a gun that he broke in with, it was a knife.

He breaks in with a gun and only gets a 5000.00 bond. He will be quickly out on the streets to do the same thing again, probably before Christmas.
