Description
Defendant-appellant, George Arnold, was charged with burglary in the second degree, tried by a jury, found guilty and sentenced by the court under the Second Offender Act to nine years in the department of corrections. He appeals and contends that the trial court erred in overruling his motion for judgment of acquittal because the evidence was insufficient to support a conviction of burglary in the second degree. We affirm. On the evening of August 6, 1974, employees of Laclede Gas Company locked and secured an ""assembly room"" located at 4015 Duncan Avenue in the City of St. Louis. Mr. Joseph W. Horenkamp, whose duties included securing the building, locked the door and checked the windows and left about 4:30 in the afternoon. He was aided by Mr. Herbert J. Fernandez, the foreman of the construction service crew. Inside the ""assembly room"" there were located a ""wire cage"" and a ""metal cabinet"" which contained tools and other items. The men left for the day about 4:30 p.m.
