Hall County Sheriff's Office investigators arrested a Flowery Branch man Wednesday in connection with a burglary in Country Walk subdivision in South Hall.

Jonathan Blake Etheridge, 26, was arrested after witnesses told police they saw him entering and leaving a home on the 4800 block of Countryside Drive, officers said. A burglary was reported at that residence around 8:30 p.m.

Officers found Etheridge, who lives in the area, at a nearby residence and took him into custody without incident, said sheriff's office spokesman Sgt. Kiley Sargent. He added that all the items reported stolen from the home, including prescription medication and collectable coins, were recovered.

Etheridge was charged with one count of burglary and is being held at Hall County Jail.

The incident remains under investigation.
