DNA Evidence Enables Bronxville Police to Make Burglaries Arrest

Bronxville police arrested a Harlem man Wednesday after an investigation into residential burglaries.

Aaron Wellington was charged with second-degree burglary and third-degree burglary, both felonies.

Police said the burglaries took place May 21, 2015, on Sunnybrae Place and Homesdale Road.

The crime scenes were processed for DNA evidence which was then submitted to the Westchester County Department of Laboratories and Research, Division of Forensic Science, for examination.

Once the DNA was processed, the profile matched Wellington.

He was arraigned by Bronxville Court judge George McKinnis and sent to the Westchester County Department of Corrections until his next court appearance Feb. 3, 2016.
