Cops: Massapequa Burglary Suspect in Custody

Police have identified the man who allegedly burglarized an Emily Street home in August.

According to detectives, on Aug. 15 at 11:43 p.m., Seventh Precinct officers responded to a call reporting suspicious persons. An investigation revealed that the home, which was undergoing renovations, had been burglarized. A stove, refrigerator and two bathroom vanities were discovered in the backyard.

Blood evidence at the scene led police to arrest Christopher Rose, 27, of Amityville, for the crime. He surrendered to Seventh Squad detectives in Seaford, police said.

Rose has been charged with second-degree burglary, and his arraignment is scheduled for Thursday at First District Court in Hempstead.
