A Manhattan man has been bound over on charges of aggravated burglary, criminal damage to property and felony DUI.
Jonathan Watt’s preliminary hearing was Friday morning in Riley County District court. His arraignment is set for August 26th.
Watt, 30, was arrested in July after striking a car and truck with his vehicle at the residence of two family members on Rimrock Road. Riley County Police indicate he then forcibly entered the home, damaging the door and door frame in the process. Watt also reportedly took various kitchen items from the home.
Estimated damage to the home and loss of property amounted to about $11,000.
