ACSO: Additional arrest in Dillon St. burglary investigation

From Sheriff Gary Roy
Adair County Sheriff's Office

On February 24, 2026, The Adair County Sheriff's Office released a list of items still missing from a burglary at 101 Dillon Street in Columbia. On February 25, 2026, an Adair County citizen made contact with Sheriff Gary Roy advising that he had possibly purchased the Canon EOS camera on the list.

Deputy Derek Padgett made contact with this citizen and confirmed by serial numbers the camera in question to be the one stolen from 101 Dillon Street. After a brief interview, information was obtained showing that another individual had sold the camera to the reporting citizen.

On February 28, 2026, Deputy Derek Padgett located the reported seller of the stolen camera. This individual was notified that the property that he had sold was stolen. However, the individual refused to provide information as to how he had obtained the stolen property. At this point in the investigation, Deputy Padgett took this information and obtained an Adair County Warrant of Arrest.


On March 2, 2026, Deputy Josh Durbin located William Shawn White, 44, of Columbia, and placed him under arrest for receiving stolen property $500.00 < $1000.00. White was lodged in the Adair County Regional Jail.
