NK Police Arrest Suspect in Breaking and Enterings From Four Towns

North Kingstown police arrested two suspects Wednesday, one with connections to breaking and enterings in North Kingstown, South Kingstown, West Warwick and East Greenwich.

Ronald Grasso, 42, of 6101 Post Rd. in North Kingstown and Alyssa Colaluca, 23, of 26 Nelson St. in Providence were arrested on Nov. 16 at the Grasso's home in the Post Road Park. West Warwick police alerted the that a dark SUV was believed to be involved in a breaking and entering earlier that day in West Warwick and was possibly heading to the mobile home park in North Kingstown.

North Kingstown officers arrived at 6101 Post Rd., where they found the unoccupied SUV; inside the SUV, officers discovered stolen goods from the West Warwick incident along with other items taken from a breaking and entering in East Greenwich.

Inside Grasso's residence, North Kingstown and East Greenwich detectives found more items from Grasso's breaking and entering offenses - including tools used by Grasso to break into houses, 30 grams of marijuana and evidence related to another breaking and entering in South Kingstown.

Though police have been able to link Grasso to two breaking and entering incidents in the north end of North Kingstown, police are looking into whether Grasso could be behind .

"We are looking to analyze this information and see if there's any correlation between the breaks down on Shermantown Road," said Lt. Chris Emerson of the North Kingstown Police Department.

Last week, a house on Polo Drive and another on Fieldstone Lane – two streets at near opposite ends of Shermantown Road – were broken into. Residents reported seeing a man and a woman driving in a dark-colored SUV. North Kingstown police began to jointly investigate the incidents with local departments and agencies, which "seamlessly rolled" into Wednesday's arrests.

Grasso is facing two counts of breaking and entering, two counts of receiving stolen goods, one felony count of possession of marijuana and one count of possession of burglary tools from the North Kingstown Police Department. He is expected to be charged with breaking and entering charges from South Kingstown, East Greenwich and West Warwick, as well.

Colaluca was arrested on a Superior Court bench warrant and later charged by West Warwick for conspiracy to commit breaking and entering.

The duo was arraigned in Third District Court on Nov. 17. Both are currently being held at the Adult Correctional Institute.
