Decatur Man Who Steals Truck Has Bond Set

A Decatur man arrested after stealing a truck in Taylorville appeared in court on Friday and has a $75,000 bond. Daniel Skaggs was arrested early last week for stealing a vehicle and aggravated fleeing. Skaggs appeared with a neck brace on and appeared in physical pain in court on Friday. 

 

After arguments from both the State and the public defender's office, the state asked for $75,000 in bond. The public defender’s office asked for $10-15,000. Judge Chris Matoush ordered that bond be set at $75,000 with 10% to apply. A preliminary hearing is set for November 30th. Skaggs will most likely be sent to IDOC as he does have a parole hold from a separate county.  

 

His next court appearance is set for November 30th.
