Two men accused of burglarizing Hall of Languages in February have each been indicted on one felony and misdemeanor charge.

Christopher “Shinobi” Dugger, 25, of 521 Garfield Ave., and Duncan “Wonderboy” Miller, 21, homeless, were each indicted by an Onondaga County grand jury late last week on two counts: felony burglary and criminal possession of stolen property in the fifth-degree, a misdemeanor.

The Department of Public Safety arrested Dugger and Miller on Feb. 15 outside of Hall of Languages after a brief foot chase. Both were found with two stolen laptops owned by Syracuse University.

They still each have pending cases in Syracuse City Court for charges of third-degree criminal trespass. Miller also faces a misdemeanor drug charge and Dugger was also charged with possession of burglar’s tools.

Miller’s next city court date is scheduled for May 5 and Dugger is due back on May 27.

On top of the other cases, Miller was charged in March with stealing $7,642 worth of electronics from the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications on Feb. 9. It’s unclear if this recent case was included in the indictment, but Miller and Dugger’s lawyer, Don Kelly, said he “anticipates” it will be discussed at their arraignment on April 23.

There were nearly 18 attempted break-ins to several offices on the third floor of Newhouse II. DPS has said the pair was also being considered as suspects in a string of campus burglaries at Huntington Hall, Life Sciences Complex, the College of Law, Crouse College and Archbold Gymnasium.

Neither has posted bail yet and both are in jail.
