A South Charleston man allegedly broke into his ex-girlfriend's home, stole several items, hid her TV in the attic and later sent her a FaceTime video chat from inside the house.
Xavier Jones, 27, climbed through the woman's window in Dunbar on Wednesday and stole one iPad and two Amazon Fire TV Sticks, according to a criminal complaint filed in Kanawha County Magistrate Court.
Jones reportedly told the woman he wanted to "play a game" and make her find the belongings. She later found her TV hidden in the attic.
The woman began to leave an hour later to file a domestic violence protection order, the complaint states. That's when she noticed Jones' white Dodge Charger outside.
She watched Jones leave his car and go back into the house, where he then sent her a video chat from his phone, according to the complaint.
Officers found Jones in South Charleston and soon discovered he had 11 grams of marijuana and a handgun - a violation of an existing protective order against him.
Jones remained at South Central Regional Jail in lieu of a $7,500 bond on Friday afternoon.
