Man Arrested In Connection With Dorm Break-Ins At Harvard

CAMBRIDGE (CBS) - A man was arrested early Thursday morning in connection with a series of burglaries at freshman dorms in Harvard Yard.

Students said someone had climbed through first-floor windows and stole laptops, Air Pods, a backpack and a wallet in the dorms between February 19 and March 2.

Campus police said they spotted a man acting suspiciously around 1 a.m. Thursday, shortly after another break-in had just happened. He was arrested and will now be charged in two of the four previous burglaries, police said.

Last week, Boston Police said there were a series of break-ins at off-campus houses near Boston College.
