A former employee at Centennial Golf Course has been charged with one count of burglary in an alleged clubhouse burglary, authorities said.
Oak Ridge Police Department officers Grant Gouldie and Ben Higgins responded to the burglary call at the Centennial Golf Course Clubhouse on Centennial Bluff Boulevard at about 12:04 a.m. March 9, a press release said. They found that a glass door had been shattered, and a set of golf clubs was missing.
Golf course employees who arrived to turn off the alarm were also interviewed, and video images of the burglary was reviewed and a suspect identified, the release said.
The value of the stolen/damaged property was estimated at $1,697.
Later that same day, at approximately 3:25 p.m., ORPD Detective Kevin Craig interviewed the suspect, a former Centennial Golf Course employee identified as Chris Queen, 22, of Knoxville.
Queen was placed under arrest and was taken to the Anderson County Detention Facility in Clinton, where he was charged with one count of burglary, the City of Oak Ridge said in the press release.
“The investigation remains ongoing, and no further details will be released at this time,” the release said.
Queen has been released on a $10,000 bond, according to the Anderson County Sheriff’s Department website.
