CLEMENTON — A South Jersey man was arrested Tuesday after borough police caught him allegedly breaking into a woman’s home.
Matthew Medina, 30, of Waterford Township.
It was just before 10:20 p.m. on Feb. 7 when police responded to Atlantic Avenue for the breaking and entering call. According to Clementon police, responding officers were able to locate and arrest the alleged suspect.
According to the female victim, 30-year-old Matthew Medina was allegedly trying to forcibly enter her home through a rear door.
Medina, of the Atco section of Waterford Township, was charged with criminal trespass and sent to the Camden County Jail ahead of a detention hearing.
Last October, Clementon police issued a warning to residents regarding a string of burglaries. Police cautioned residents to lock up, report suspicious people in the area, and to invest in alarm systems, motion activated cameras, or video surveillance.
