Nathan Phillip "Nate" Wolfe, 26, of the 1500 block of U.S. 78 East in Oxford was charged with multiple counts of burglary.
Anniston police Capt. Richard Smith said the case broke after Wolfe broke into the ABC Store at 1436 Lenlock Lane around 12:30 a.m. June 10. There, he was captured on camera stealing alcohol, Smith said.
Smith said Wolfe was stopped by police three hours after the burglary while driving on the 6000 block of Weaver Road in Anniston.
Anniston police officers said they found a pistol with the serial number removed, a felony.
Smith said Wolfe confessed to a number of similar burglaries throughout Calhoun County.
Calhoun County Chief Deputy Matthew Wade said Wolfe and Dangelous Ortiz Woodgett, 27, of the first block of Faith Avenue in Jacksonville, targeted The TG Bake Shop, Pritchard's Deli, the Spirit Express and other businesses.
The burglars would shoot through a door or window and break through the glass, Wade said.
Smith said they also used gunfire to break open registers.
Wade said most of the burglaries related to the theft of cigarettes or alcohol.
Jacksonville police Chief Tommy Thompson said Wolfe has been charged with two second-degree burglaries in Jacksonville.
In total, Wolfe is charged with six counts of second-degree burglary, two counts of third-degree burglary and one count of attempted third degree burglary. He is also charged with possession of a firearm with an altered serial number and unlawfully carrying a pistol.
Woodgett is charged with two counts of second-degree burglary by the Sheriff's Office.
