City Man Wanted In Pa. Burglary Arrested
A Jamestown man facing felony charges in Warren County, Pa., was arrested early Wednesday morning in Jamestown.
Jamestown police report arresting Aaron M. Nazario, 39, of Jamestown after officers attempted to stop a man riding a bicycle on the sidewalk on Cole Avenue near South Main Street. The man tried to run from officers but was caught after a short foot chase.
Nazario was charged with being a fugitive from justice and cited for riding a bicycle on the sidewalk and for not having a bell on his bicycle.
Nazario and Sarah E. Lundsten, 42, also of Jamestown, had been charged in Warren County following an Oct. 20 burglary in Youngsville. Nazario is charged with burglary, conspiracy to commit burglary and criminal trespassing – entering a structure, all felony charges, as well as theft by unlawful taking and loitering and prowling at night time, both misdemeanor charges. Lundsten is charged with conspiracy to commit burglary, a felony, and loitering and prowling at night time, a misdemeanor.
According to online Court of Common Pleas of Warren County records, Lundsten will be formally arraigned on Nov. 21. She was taken to the Warren County Prison and posted $25,000 bond.
According to the affidavit of probable cause filed in Warren County Court by the Youngsville Police Department, Nazario allegedly stole an ebike from a garage in Youngsville valued at $1,200. The garage had been left open overnight, according to the affidavit.
A neighborhood resident was able to provide Ring doorbell camera footage showing a man and woman walking west on East Main Street, Youngsville, around 4:27 a.m. Oct. 20. The man shined a flashlight toward the garage and noticed it was open. Additional camera footage from the Country Fair store in Youngsville showed a Subaru Forester with New York registration that matched the pictures and video from the site of the burglary while the two people at Country Fair matched those seen in the Ring camera footage.
The arresting officer said Nazario met up with a woman at the Country Fair, with cameras allegedly showing Nazario getting a flashlight out of the Subaru and testing it. That flashlight, the officer said, was later seen in video used by Nazario to see into the open garage.
“Nazario is the only person that was observed walking up the driveway to the garage during this time,” the affidavit states. “Video shows Nazario riding the bike down the driveway and then him going east on East Main Street. The Subaru then follows.”
Charges against Lundsten were filed because she is allegedly the registered owner of the Subaru. Video footage from the Ring doorbell camera allegedly showed Lundsten and Nazario together at 4:27 a.m. walking down East Main Street and then again at 4:36 a.m. when Nazario allegedly got out of the car and walked up the driveway. Footage from Country Fair at 3 a.m. allegedly shows them together again.
