License left behind at scene

A woman who tried to break her way into a house by using her driver’s license to pick the lock has been charged with attempted burglary after her license was found at the scene.

The defendant, Kylie L. Grissom, is charged with attempted burglary for an alleged attempted break-in of a home on Bethany Road last month. The burglary was discovered days later when the resident returned home to find the broken driver’s license belonging to Grissom hanging inside his door.

Investigators suspect Grissom went onto the back porch of the home and was attempting to open the door using her driver’s license when the license broke in two, leaving her unable to retrieve the broken license inside the still-locked door. Identifying the suspect was simple as the broken license revealed Grissom’s identity.

During subsequent questioning, Grissom reportedly admitted she tried to break into the house to look for ‘painkiller pills’ but was unable to gain entry.
