Manatee — When a Bradenton man noticed a few of his items were missing from his apartment last month he called the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office to investigate.

On Tuesday the man’s ex-roommate, Ryan Duane Moore, was linked to selling the missing items to pawn shops, including an Acer laptop, an ultra light fishing pole, a 40-caliber handgun and an Xbox 360 console.

According to a police report, pawn shop records linked Moore, 25, to taking those objects from the apartment in the 5300 block of 26th Street West.

Moore is facing charges of grand theft, trafficking stolen property and providing false information to a pawn shop and is being held without bail.
