Two Mercer County men Clifford Woods and Bobby Joe Smith were arrested early Wednesday and charged with breaking into six cars at the Princeton Holiday Inn parking lot. Woods faces six counts of auto breaking and entering, with a shoplifting warrant from Douglas Sporting Goods. Smith faces six counts of aiding and abetting.
