GEORGETOWN, Del. – A Georgetown man is behind bars after a burglary incident that happened Thursday night.
Just after 9:30 p.m., troopers responded to a residence off of Farm Lane for a reported theft in progress. The female resident told police that an unknown male subject was on her property and removing items from her vehicle. The victim reportedly fired a single shot from her handgun away from the suspect towards the woods to scare him off, but he did not leave.
When officers arrived on scene, they found the suspect, identified as 36-year-old Carlton Breasure, walking on a dirt lane towards the police vehicles, holding items in his hands. Police gave commands to drop the items, but Breasure failed to comply and began walking away. Breasure failed to comply with commands to stop and resisted arrest.
