Hearing scheduled for man who hid in pharmacy

IRON MOUNTAIN, MI--   A preliminary hearing is set for a Columbus, Ohio man accused of hiding in an Iron Mountain pharmacy until it closed, then trying to steal drugs. 

The Iron Mountain Daily News reports Lavon Christian, 30, was arrested Thursday after an alarm activated at The Drug Store around 11:15 p.m. He was arraigned Friday on charges of breaking and entering—entry without breaking with intent; possession of Fentanyl; possession of buprenorphine; and two counts of resisting and obstructing an officer.

Christian’s preliminary exam is scheduled for December 6 in Dickinson County District Court. 

Nicole was born near Detroit but has lived in the U.P. most of her life. She graduated from Marquette Senior High School and attended Michigan State and Northern Michigan Universities, graduating from NMU in 1993 with a degree in English.
