The Boone Police Department charged a Creston sex offender with three counts of felony first-degree burglary following several bizarre break-ins last Friday.
Gary Lee Greer, 36, formerly of Watauga County, was charged in connection with break-ins at three downtown Boone apartments.
The apartments, one on Water Street and two on Howard Street, were occupied at the time of the break-ins.
Two female and one male victims told police they awoke in their bedrooms to find Greer standing over them. He was also charged with a misdemeanor assault on a female in connection to the incidents.
A search of the North Carolina sex offender registry revealed Greer is a registered sex offender based on a conviction of second degree rape in Johnson County in 2005.
He was released from the Department of Corrections in June 2008.
