Two Coal Grove men accused of stealing firearms from a police vehicle and subsequently robbing a man last week made initial appearances in Ironton Municipal Court.

David Harris, 21, of 506 Marion Pike, Lot 4, in Coal Grove, and Joseph Waddle, 23, of 506 Marion Pike, Lot 6, appeared before Judge O. Clark Collins Tuesday for a bond hearing and to be appointed attorneys.

Harris and Waddle are both charged with aggravated robbery, two felony counts of theft and one misdemeanor count of theft. Waddle also has an additional count of felony having weapons under a disability.

Bond was set for each man at $100,000. Harris was appointed attorney Gene Meadow; Waddle was appointed Mike Davenport.

The two are scheduled to appear for a preliminary hearing on Thursday.

The men were arrested Friday after more than a dozen Coal Grove residents’ vehicles were broken into, one of which was a police cruiser.

Harris and Waddle are accused of taking two pistols from the cruiser’s secured lock box.

According to Coal Grove Police Chief Eric Spurlock, the men each took a gun and allegedly held one to a man’s head and one to his chest, allegedly taking $19 in cash.

The firearms were later found in one of the suspect’s homes under a piece of furniture.
