Hamden Man Charged with Shoplifting in South Windsor

South Windsor police have arrested a Hamden man on larceny charges stemming from shoplifting incidents that occurred at a Buckland Road retail store in February.

Henry Cofrancesco, 45, of 120 Hawthorne Ave. in Hamden, was arrested on two warrants Wednesday and charged with fifth-degree larceny and sixth-degree larceny.

Police said Cofrancesco was seen on surveillance video stealing items such as electric razors and toothbrushes. He left the store prior to police being called and investigating officers later determined Cofrancesco was the suspect and obtained arrest warrants for him.

Cofrancesco was held on a $10,000 surety bond and was arraigned at Manchester Superior Court on Wednesday morning.
