Prosecutor Kym L. Worthy on Wednesday charged Robert Jones with breaking and entering, safe braking and malicious destruction of building and personal property.
Brown is accused of smashing out a glass door early Tuesday morning and forcing open a cash register.
While Brown was inside, two police officers went in to try to find him -- but they walked through two doors that locked behind them.
Brown found a security guard in the building and led the guard to the officers who were stuck in the stairwell.
Once the doors were unlocked and the officers freed, Brown was arrested.
