Several Vehicles Burglarized In North Haven: Police

NORTH HAVEN, CT — Police are continuing to investigate a series of car burglaries that occurred during the early morning hours on Monday in North Haven. Several suspects fled on foot and eluded police. At about 1:30 a.m. on Aug. 21, a Briarwood Circle resident reported observing four or five subjects attempting to enter vehicles before fleeing in a dark sedan, according to North Haven Police.

Police said about 15 minutes later, a Sugar Hill Road resident was alerted by an activated car alarm and a suspect was seen running away. Officers responded to the area and engaged in a foot pursuit through the rear yards of several homes, according to police.

Several other subjects also fled on foot from a stolen dark-colored Audi sedan. East Haven Police and Connecticut State Police assisted in setting a perimeter and conducting a K-9 track for the suspects, according to North Haven Police.

“Unfortunately, these efforts were unsuccessful,” police said in a post on Facebook. “Several vehicles on Sugar Hill Road had been gone through and it is believed these were the same suspects from the Briarwood Circle incident. The investigation is ongoing.”
