COBB COUNTY, Ga. \u2014 A metro Atlanta man accused of breaking into a Cobb County home following a murder<\/a> has now been accused of breaking into the home of a NASCAR driver killed in a plane crash.<\/p>\n

Terrell Williams, 44 of Stone Mountain, faces multiple charges. <\/p>\n

How police in Georgia and North Carolina connected the cases, LIVE on Channel 2 Action News This Morning starting at 4:30 a.m.<\/p>\n

Last month, Cobb County police arrested Kirk Wrzeisen after his wife was found shot and killed inside their home<\/a>, and their son, who had also been shot, ran to neighbors for help.<\/p>\n

According to arrest warrants obtained by Channel 2 Action News, Williams broke into the home a week after a deadly shooting. The warrant said that Williams was captured on security camera inside the home.<\/p>\n

Authorities in Iredell County, North Carolina say they were informed by Cobb County investigators that Williams could be connected to a burglary they had been investigating for months.<\/p>\n

Back in January, investigators responded to the home of late NASCAR driver Greg Biffle for reports of a burglary. Biffle, his wife Cristina, their two children and three other passengers were killed in a plane crash just weeks before.<\/a><\/p>\n

Deputies found guns, NASCAR memorabilia, gold and silver coins, and more than $30,000 in cash.<\/p>\n

North Carolina investigators say they found some of those items at Williams\u2019 home in metro Atlanta. They also found a radio frequency detector, which they believe he used to help evade cameras inside Biffle\u2019s home.<\/p>\n

Detectives say that the day after the burglary, Williams used some of the cash to buy a car, which was then found and seized in Georgia.<\/p>\n

Authorities have requested that Williams be extradited to North Carolina to face 12 charges related to the burglary at Biffle\u2019s home and a separate 2019 breaking and entering case in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.<\/p>\n
