A Great Neck resident was arrested last Wednesday in connection with a series of burglaries in Manhasset and Roslyn Heights.
David Mintz, 36, was charged with three counts of third-degree burglary for three business burglaries in September.
Two of the incidents were Sept. 3 in Manhasset, according to a Nassau County police arrest report.
At 5:11 a.m. Mintz entered Studio Salon on Bayview Avenue through a back window and did not steal anything, the report says. That evening, he allegedly entered Forbici Hair Salon on Plandome Road through a window and stole cash and a credit card from the register.
The third incident Mintz was charged for occurred Sept. 20 at Joy Acupuncture on Mineola Avenue in Roslyn Heights. Mintz allegedly entered through a rear window. He did not take anything, police said.
Mintz was arrested in a Hempstead parking lot at 2:40 p.m. Wednesday. He was also arrested for burglary in 2013, according to a Nassau County Police Department public information officer.
The three September incidents were among a series that began as early as June that the burglary pattern squad was investigating in the area.
“Right now we’re able to close out these three cases and the active investigation will continue,” said Officer Deluca, a public information officer for the police department.
