BAY CITY — Local police say a Bay City man stole a friend's videogame systems to hock for drug money, but left behind a different gaming console in the process.

Bay City police around 9:30 p.m. on Friday responded to a suspected break-in in the 500 block of South Madison Ave. The 18-year-old resident, Nickolas R. Charo, said he came home to find his Xbox Elite, Wii, several games and controllers, a GPS and $250 in cash missing.

Charo said he believed his friend Joshua A. Beck, 19, was to blame and that he stole the property to feed an addiction to prescription anxiety-reducer Xanax. Charo told police Beck had been over earlier, encouraging Charo to sell his consoles for money, police reports indicate.

Charo left his residence Friday afternoon and returned to find his systems missing, though a Playstation 3 he identified as Beck’s was in their place.

Police on Sunday arrested Beck. In an interview with them, Beck reportedly admitted to entering Charo’s home through an unlocked door and stealing the gaming systems and GPS, though he denied taking the $250 cash.

Police searched Beck’s home and found some of the stolen items, police reports show. Beck told them he pawned the Xbox Elite for about $50.

Bay County District Judge Dawn A. Klida on Monday arraigned Beck on single counts of second-degree home invasion, a 15-year felony, and larceny in a building. She set Beck’s bond at $50,000 cash-surety.
