Hamilton Township Police have arrested an Army National Guardsman for allegedly trying to break into an unoccupied home on Monday.
Investigators say Timothy Keefe--of Mays Landing, New Jersey--was going door to door in a local neighborhood, telling residents he was looking for work and money. Keefe allegedly tried to enter a home on Park Road when he was startled by a burglar alarm.
Police arrested the 24-year-old and charged him with Criminal Attempt Burglary. Keefe was also charged for the theft of two vehicles from Mays Landing back in October.
Keefe is currently being held on a $25,000 bond at the Atlantic County Justice Facility.
Anyone who may have had contact with Keefe or provided him with donations is asked to call Detective Frank Schalek at 609-625-2700, ext. 567.
