Man Who Cleaned Homes in Lincoln Accused of Stealing Jewelry

police-lights-redLINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A 48-year-old man is suspected of stealing jewelry from several Lincoln homes while working in them for a cleaning service.

Robert Harris faces a felony theft charge from a March case and soon could face more charges. Harris has been jailed pending $75,000 bond. Online court records don’t list the name of an attorney who could be contacted to comment on Harris’ behalf.

Harris was arrested on April 1 after being accused of pawning six items stolen from a Lincoln woman’s home. He bonded out of jail but was rearrested last week after investigators checked reports from seven other clients of the cleaning service that jewelry had been stolen from December through March.
