Acting on a tip from a local resident and information provided by Flock Safety cameras, Wake Forest police were able to obtain arrest warrants for a Stantonsburg man on Tuesday, Dec. 12, and just before 8 p.m. that same day Alexander James Krumenacher turned himself in at the Downtown Substation (formerly headquarters) on Taylor Street
Krumenacher, 7801 Pelt Road, Stantonsburg, received a Written Promise to Appear for his court appearance on Thursday, Jan. 25, 2024. He will be charged with one misdemeanor count of Larceny and one misdemeanor count of Damage to Property, and the case will be heard in the Wake County Courthouse in Raleigh. Stantonsburg is in Wilson County south of the town of Wilson.
The charges stem from a November 21 incident involving the removal of the Little Free Library formerly located near the intersection of South White Street and Elm Avenue.

Fantastic approach Kenille. That would be perfect justice served.
Amazing work by our wonderful Wake Forest police. I can’t believe I am saying this, but public stockades would be an appropriate punishment. Next best would be that if this Alexander James Knumenacher is found guilty that he would make by hand another such library, he would need to keep it filled for at least a year with books appropriate to this Little Free Library, as well as community service cleanup or using his ax to cut down community brush to be done during the hours he snuck into downtown to destroy this property
agree, would be poetic justice indeed
I love your approach to his punishment
