Two men arrested in connection to mail theft

Two men have been arrested in connection to an apartment building break-in on October 15.

Police were called to the 2700 block of College Avenue where suspects had broken the front door to get into the building, and police also found out that the suspects had also broken into the mailboxes of the tenants.

An investigation by police led them to ID two males who police were able to arrest on Wednesday outside a hotel in the 1700 block of Victoria Avenue.
