Aiken County Sheriff's Office deputies released the identities of two men they have charged with burglaries at a Montmorenci convenience store.

Angelo D. Hatcher, 20, of the 100 block of Psalms Circle in Montmorenci is charged with second degree burglary.

Jermaine A. Goddard, 22, of the same address is also charged with second degree burglary.

After tracking for more than a half-mile, the Aiken County Sheriff's Office deputies and members of the Aiken Bloodhound Tracking Team arrested the two men on allegations they were involved in an overnight burglary and theft at Montmorenci Junction, 1049 Charleston Highway in Montmorenci, said Lt. Michael Frank, an Aiken County sheriff's Office spokesperson.

The men, Frank said, were uncooperative and deputies spent Thursday trying to positively identify them.

On Friday afternoon, Frank reported their identities and released pictures of the two and their charges.

The pair had been arrested at their mobile home on Psalm Circle in Montmorenci on Thursday morning.

Deputies found stolen lottery tickets, beer, cigars and candy, Frank said.

They said the men broke into the convenience store early Thursday morning, about 3 a.m.

Investigators found the siding had been pried away from the building and the burglars had climbed into the business.

Investigators have linked the men to another break-in Wednesday night at the store, Frank said.

The subjects are being held at the Aiken County Detention Center.
