A Jamesport man was arrested on a burglary charge in connection with theft of liquor from a Mattituck restaurant and bar.
Fabian Colon, 37, was arrested and charged with burglary in the third degree after he unlawfully entered a Mattituck restaurant and bar on May 20, 2007 and removed bottles of liquor from the premises, according to Southold Town Police detectives.
The arrest in the 9-year-old case resulted from the police detectives recently obtaining DNA evidence, Southold Police Chief Martin Flatley said.
