Lakewood police early this morning arrested a man wanted in connection with multiple vehicle burglaries, TLS has learned.
At approximately 1:30 AM, police spotted a man in the area of MLK Drive matching the description of the suspect they were looking for in connection with vehicle burglaries.
Officers attempted to make contact with him, but the suspect fled, and officers gave chase.
Police caught up with the suspect and placed him under arrest. He had on him proceeds from multiple victims, police say.
The suspect, whose name has not yet been released, was transported to the Ocean County Jail.
He will likely be released before his name is released.
Kudos the the LPD for apprehending this fellow. If it’s the guy who stole my cards and charged 2k on it, I hope he enjoys his punishment even more.
