Two charged with burglary in Lewes incident
By LEWES - Two arrests were made after Delaware State Police responded to a burglary in progress incident Sunday, spokesman Senior Cpl. Leonard DeMalto said.
Police said that at approximately 10:12 p.m., troopers responded to a home on Pecan Court regarding subjects who were attempting to break into a residence. The homeowner was not present at the time, but on his security camera he saw a male holding a large knife and walking around the screened-in porch area, police said.
Troopers arrived and saw that a screen door and screen window had been cut and a glass window had been shattered. Once troopers and State Police
