Another alleged thief was quickly apprehended after a home burglary.
According to police, the suspect tried to flee Marlborough police after they signaled him to pull him over for a traffic offense.
After he was stopped, the driver purportedly fessed up that he thought he was being chased down for a burglary he had just committed in Southborough!
He was charged with a B&E, that was more E than B. The house was reported unlocked. Which is why, Southborough Police are sharing another reminder on securing homes, and other crime prevention tips. (Click thumbnails to enlarge.)
