Detective William Phayre this week charged 49-year-old Milton D. Brown with burglary, theft and criminal trespassing after he burglarized a locker at HackensackUMC Fitness and Wellness Center on northbound Route 17 in late October, Detective Sgt. Matthew Parodi said.

“Due to Detective Phayre’s diligent investigation, [Brown] was identified as the suspect in this incident, along with him being a suspect in approximately five other similar incidents within New Jersey,” Parodi said.

Brown, who had a previous burglary and theft arrest out of Saddle Brook in 2003, was released pending further court action.
