It was about as un-neighborly as possible.

Sheriff James Pohlmann said a man and a woman were booked with simple burglary after they broke into the home of a neighbor down the block and stole numerous items, then tried to sell some of the stolen loot to other neighbors.

David Will Jr., 40, and Stephanie Taylor, 24, were arrested and booked with burglary of a residence on June 20. the sheriff said.

Will and Taylor said they were living with a relative of hers in the 1600 block of Robert Drive, the same block where the burglary happened.

Will passed out in a police vehicle after his arrest in the 1600 block of Robert Drive. Taylor passed out after fleeing to another residence on a different street.

Both were taken to a hospital for medical treatment and then arrested and taken to jail.

When brought to St. Bernard Parish Prison, Taylor was also booked with trying to bring contraband into the prison, which was drugs found hidden on her.

Most of the stolen items, including two television sets, money and other items, were recovered.

Taylor is jailed in lieu of bond set at $15,000 and Will was being held in lieu of bond set at $12,500.
