Larry Binion – Burglary of a Business

On May 10, 2015, Discount Building Materials was broken into. Investigators located a video of the suspect. After attempts to identify him were unsuccessful investigators then checked with other agencies in the area to assist. The investigators were contacted by the Eupora Police Department who also had a business burglary similar to the burglary in Oxford. Their suspect resembled the same person as the one in the video. As talks continued with them the Eupora police contacted Oxford investigators this week to inform that Houston Police Department had a Subway restaurant broken into and they caught a suspect. The suspect was Larry Binion, 49 of Greenwood. In each video, Binion had on the same clothes and same motive as he entered the buildings. Investigators identified Binion as the suspect from the Discount burglary. There may be more suspects involved and investigators are working with the other agencies to finalize the cases.
