Guilford Families Honored For Assisting In Burglary Suspect's Arrest

GUILFORD, CT — The Guilford Police Department recently recognized locally families who helped in the arrest of a fleeing burglary suspect, police said. Police said without their help, it's likely the suspect would not have been arrested.

"The Guilford Police Department would like to recognize and thank the Skoczylas Family and the Robinson Family for their service to the Department and the Community by assisting with the apprehension of a fleeing burglary suspect on August 14th, 2017.

Their sense of awareness and willingness to assist directly resulted in the arrest of the suspect who was later connected to several burglaries committed in Guilford and surrounding communities. Without the assistance of these two families, it is likely that this individual would not have been apprehended that day. It is people like this who make Guilford such a great community. Thank you for sharing and stay safe!"
