Unsuccessful Burglary Attempt Lands 2 Suspects In Jail

Shortly after midnight on Saturday morning, a Rotterdam homeowner called 911 because someone unsuccessfully tried to force their way into the home, and were still inside the garage of the home.

When Rotterdam Police got to scene, they saw that the two suspects were still inside of the garage.

One of the suspects made an unsuccessful attempt to get away. He allegedly broke a window and then jumped through it. That escape was short lived. He took off on foot but was caught by authorities shortly after the chase began.

The suspects, 19-year-old Ryan Perry, and 19-year-old Michael J. Eden, both from Schenectady, were arrested and remanded to the Schenectady County Jail. According to the article from the Times Union, both suspects received Felony Burglary charges in the third degree, and several other charges. They may end up with more charges as there is still an investigation continuing.
