A warrant was issued Friday in Montgomery County for his arrest for violating his probation

Greene, 56 of Greenville, was convicted of theft in 2020 after taking money for jobs in Montgomery County while working for TK Home Improvement and exploiting homeowners who suffered property damage during the 2019 Memorial Day Tornadoes.

He was placed on probation, according to the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office.

Greene failed to meet those conditions and it prompted a warrant for his arrest.

It makes him eligible to serve five years in prison for his theft offenses.
