A Portland, Connecticut man was arrested after a resident
who lives on Channel View Drive, Little Torch Key saw him attempting to
burglarize vehicles around his house.
Deputy Donald Stulken was dispatched to Channel View Drive
at 2:20 a.m. When he arrived he began searching for the suspect. As Deputy
Stulken was searching, the witness called Sheriff’s communications officers back
and said he saw the suspect walking underneath his house.
Deputy Juan Martin-Reyes arrived as a backup officer and
spotted 38 year old Christopher Radman. Radman was identified by the witness as the man he
saw trying to enter multiple cars in the neighborhood.
Radman’s pockets were full of small items, including an
expensive designer watch and a diamond engagement ring, as well as lots of
small change, an Iphone, and a disposable camera.
After speaking to people who live in the area, as well as
the witness who saw Radman committing the crimes, Radman was charged with one
count of vehicle burglary and five counts of attempted vehicle burglary. Detectives are following up today and more
charges are expected.
Thanks to my neighbor's quick thinking and the quick response of the deputies one criminal is off the streets and our valuables were recovered.
