A Linwood man was arrested after he allegedly broke into an Atlantic City home and stole several bottles of alcohol Wednesday afternoon.
A neighbor called police to the 2900 block of Sunset Avenue at 2:46 p.m. after hearing glass break and seeing a man enter the house, Lt. Kevin Fair said.
The suspect, later identified as Shane Hunt, fled the residence with the bottles before officers arrived, according to the report.
Hunt fled toward the bay and tried to hide under a boat ramp, Fair said.
Sgt. Stephen Rando and Officer Alberto Gonzalez found him and took him into custody without incident.
Hunt, 41, was charged with burglary and theft and released on a summons.
