LI Woman Threw Rocks Through Door To Burglarize McDonald's: NCPD

A Rockville Centre woman was arrested early Monday morning after police say she broke into a McDonald's in Lynbrook.

According to police, Lynbrook police officers and the Lynbrook Fire Department responded to a fire alarm at the McDonald's at 12 Merrick Road. When they arrived, they found that someone had entered the restaurant after throwing rocks through the drive-through window and the front glass door.

Police investigated, which they say led them to Maria A. Campione, 19, of Merrick Road, who was standing nearby watching the police and firefighters respond to the alarm. When officers began to question her, police say she ran. Officers quickly caught up to her, police say, and placed her under arrest after a brief struggle.

Police say no one was injured, and no proceeds from the burglary were recovered.

Campione is charged with third-degree burglary and second-degree criminal mischief. She was arraigned in First District Court in Hempstead on Monday.
