Felony charges were filed Friday against a 26-year-old man accused of breaking into a Long Beach church twice in less than a week.
Fix allegedly broke into the preschool at Lakewood Village Community Church and stole several electronic items last Saturday. He allegedly stole cash, checks, a credit card and other electronic items from the church during another break-in four days later.
Fix was arrested Wednesday, after the stolen credit card’s owner notified police that the card had been used at a store.
He is due back in a Long Beach courtroom Aug. 19 and could face up to 4 1/2 years in county jail if convicted as charged, according to the District Attorney’s Office.
