BRIDGEPORT — A Bridgeport man was arrested on Jan. 23 in connection to multiple burglaries in Bridgeport and Fairfield.
Alison Hohn, 39, has been charged with one count of burglary while additional arrest warrants are pending for other burglaries he allegedly made in the two municipalities.
According to Scott Appleby, the director of the Office of Emergency Management & Homeland Security, Hohn confessed to four burglaries in the area and has been linked to five additional burglaries in Bridgeport and Fairfield.
Appleby said Hohn was arrested after being observed forcing entry into a residence on Eaton Street by Bridgeport police. He said detectives were assisted in the arrest by members of the Bridgeport police patrol division and Fairfield Police.
According to the Special Services Bureau commander, Captain Robert Kalamaras, Hohn was arrested, in part, due to the efforts of FPD Officer Justin Young.
“(Young) observed him coming out from behind a house of Valley Road (in Fairfield), but didn’t have enough probable cause to make an arrest,” said Kalamaras. “So he gave him an infraction for simple trespass and took a photograph of him. Over the next 24 hours, we (had him under surveillance) and caught him in the act of burglary right over the Park Avenue line in Bridgeport.”
Kalamaras said Hohn, while being interviewed by detectives, gave them information that may help clear nearly 20 cases. He said Hohn signed a promise to appear in court and was released the day after his arrest.
