PINE KNOLL SHORES, N.C. (WITN) - A Raleigh man has agreed to pay $16,000 in restitution after authorities say he never made repairs on Hurricane Florence damage to beachfront condos after being paid.
Pine Knoll Shores police said Clayton Amidon pled guilty today to nine counts of failure to work after paid.
Police said the 46-year-old contractor entered into contractual agreements with owners at Pine Knoll Townes Condos, but the repair work was never completed after deposits were made.
