Two Clanton residents facing multiple charges involving theft of property stolen from a Clanton Police officer during July Fourth 2015 are scheduled to be arraigned Feb. 22 at the Chilton County Courthouse.

The two are scheduled to appear before Chilton County Circuit Judge Ben A. Fuller at 8:30 a.m.

Donald Jason Giles, 26, who lists an address off County Road 407 in Clanton, was indicted Jan. 29 on two counts of theft of property first degree, breaking and entering a vehicle, burglary third degree, attempting to elude and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to court records.

Giles was released from jail on bond on Feb. 4.

Misty Dawn Cleckler, 24, who also lists an address off County Road 407 in Clanton, faces two counts of theft of property first degree, burglary third degree and breaking and entering a vehicle, according to court records.

Cleckler is being held at the Chilton County Jail.

The two were arrested on July 3, 2015, after a Clanton Police Department officer’s residence and police vehicle were burglarized between 4 a.m. and 8 a.m. July 2, 2015, according to information released by CPD at the time of the incident.

The suspect located the keys to the vehicle inside the residence, which was in the area of County Road 59 near Verbena Methodist Church, and was able to defeat the locking mechanisms that held the weapons in the vehicle.

The officer was not home at the time of the incident.

Several city-issued weapons were taken including a Rock River AR15 rifle, Mossbery 12-gauge shotgun, Glock Model 22 pistol and Taser X2.

On July 3, 2015, Giles and Cleckler were taken into custody following a short vehicle pursuit by CPD officers.

The Chilton County Sheriff’s Department was the lead agency investigating the case due to the fact the crime was committed outside the city limits of Clanton, but Clanton Police assisted in the case.

At the time of the arrest, authorities said Giles knew the officer, but did not elaborate on the relationship between the two individuals.

Court records indicate Donald Jason Giles is the son of a Clanton Police Department officer.

According to the arrest report filed by the Chilton County Sheriff’s Department, authorities were dispatched on July 2, 2015, to the County Road 59 residence regarding a theft.

Once officers were on the scene, they met with the officer and his wife who explained they received a call from their son, Jason Giles, that he was taking their grandson to the hospital in Alabaster.

The couple left to go to the hospital, and when they returned home, they found the lights on in the CPD patrol car and damage to a back door glass with a door still open.

On July 3, 2015, investigators with CPD received information that Jason Giles had been in the West End community attempting to “sell the stolen guns.”

The CPD attempted a traffic stop on the vehicle driven by Giles later in the evening July 3, and Giles attempted to elude officers in the vehicle when a pursuit ensued.

CPD stopped the vehicle on Sylvia Street in Clanton, according to court records.

Authorities found items from the burglary inside the vehicle occupied by Giles and Cleckler, and recovered the weapons on July 4 at an abandoned house at the end of County Road 502 in Verbena.

At the time of the burglary, the weapons were locked in the police officer’s city vehicle.
