KNOXVILLE – A Knoxville man who is behind bars is now facing additional charges for a burglary that took place in early June.

According to court records, on June 1, the Knoxville Police Department received a report of a burglary and theft that had taken place at a residence on East Marion St in Knoxville. The report indicated that numerous items were stolen, and at the time of the report, no suspects were identified.

Court records show that on June 26th, most of the stolen items were retrieved at the residence of 63-year-old Curtis Kane in a trailer at the VanDonsler campground in Knoxville. Kane is currently being held in the Marion County Jail on charges stemming from a burglary that took place on June 5, in which he allegedly broke into a home and stole various items while the victim was asleep. A Knoxville Police officer attempted to interview Kane at the jail, but he declined to speak regarding the case.

Ultimately, Kane was charged with third degree burglary, fourth degree theft, and reckless use of fire. The latter charge was added as a result of authorities allegedly discovering a paper towel lying on the floor of the garage of the residence that appeared to have been lit on fire. Kane faces these charges in addition to the first degree burglary charge resulting from the incident on June 5.
