Student accused in Brighton High School break-in appears in court Wednesday

A Brighton High School student accused of causing tens of thousands of dollars worth of damage appeared in Brighton Town Court on Wednesday.

Police say Adam Putz broke into Brighton High School last month and caused tens of thousands of dollars worth of damage. Putz is facing numerous charges including burglary, grand larceny and criminal mischief.

According to Monroe County Assistant District Attorney Hayden Dadd, Adam Putz's defense attorney decided not to waive his case to the Monroe County Grand Jury and wants to keep the case on a local court level.  According to Dadd the district attorney's office is not offering any sort of a deal to Putz at the local court level.

Putz is scheduled to re-appear in Brighton Town Court for another hearing on Monday June 4th at 1pm.
