Northampton Man Charged With Burglary

NORTHAMPTON, PA — A 65-year-old Northampton man has been arrested on burglary charges after a resident accused him of breaking in more than once.

Gaetano Guarino, 65, was arrested by Northampton Township Police on Sunday and charged with two counts of burglary, two counts of criminal trespass and one count each of criminal mischief and loitering and prowling at night time.

Police had begun investigating a complaint that Guarino had broken into a local home on at least one occasion without the owner's knowledge or permission. A security camera on the property captured footage of Guarino there, police said.

After that, the owner installed additional security devices and more video footage verified that Guarino had illegally gone onto the property at least one other time, police said.
