Bergenfield NJ police recently arrested a local teen accused of burglarizing several residences in the same area.

The suspect is a 19-year-old who lives in Bergenfield in Bergen County, New Jersey. According to Bergenfield law enforcement officials, the suspect targeted Bergenfield NJ homes between June 2016 and February 2017 and stole approximately $95,000 worth of personal possessions from the houses.

The Bergenfield Police Department conducted a lengthy investigation into the burglary and theft spree and eventually identified the suspect as the possible culprit. He was later arrested without incident.

The suspect faces numerous criminal charges for burglary, attempted burglary, theft of movable property, receiving stolen property, identity theft, and fencing. It is unclear why the suspect was charged with identity theft.

Since police continue to investigate the alleged burglary spree, it is possible that additional criminal charges could be forthcoming in the case.

After being arrested and processed, the suspect was released on his own recognizance with a pending court date.
