Northampton County District Attorney Terry Houck spoke glowingly Monday morning about the investigation by Easton police into the March 5 break-in and attempted indecent assault in a College Hill residence that led to the arrest Saturday of a Bethlehem man.
Not only is Clement Swaby, 34, of the 600 block of Hayes Street, charged in the burglary and ensuing theft and assault try, but he’s “a strong person of interest for us” in the Feb. 22 break-in and theft across the street, Houck said.
