• A 24-year-old Centralia man who got in trouble for leaving a marijuana pipe in a courtroom subsequently helped detectives solve a burglary in which more than $6,000 in property, including a Ruger pistol, had been taken, the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office reported yesterday. Albert D. Melton, 24, was in a Lewis County courtroom in Chehalis last week and told by a judge to wait in the jury box to be taken to jail, Chief Stacy Brown said. Later, the pipe was found where he had been sitting, she said. When asked later by a detective if he knew why he was talking to him, Melton reportedly spilled information about an October burglary on the 2800 block of state Route 508. The information led to two burglary arrests; one for Melton and another for Byron K. Sedrick, 31, of Centralia, according to Brown.
