“Two Arrested in Local Church Break-In”
Logan, UT- Two local residents were brought to trial today in the preliminary hearing of a break- in that occurred on September 19, 2007. 35 year old James Michaels and an undisclosed minor are being charged with two misdemeanor counts of breaking and entering and vandalism, along with one felony charge of burglary. Their defense attorney Mr. Robbie Cochran said that “our client is innocent of these charges” and he "believes the charges will be dropped."
As we reported last week on September 19th, there was a break-in at a local LDS meeting house and two CPU's were taken. Sheriff Deputy Geoffrey Hasty received several tips from people who had heard about the break-in that lead them to their arrest of the two accused. Evidence was also brought forth using fingerprints and a K-9 unit. Both suspects have been released on bail.
The trial will begin on October 21st.

I think you did a great job. It's short, but it definitely gets some pretty good information in. Possibly a little more detail might help explain the situation better, but I really think you did awesome!
