HANOVER TOWNSHIP — Hanover Township Sgt. Dominic Kaiser arrested Carl Ianiro, 31, West Orange, for burglary. At approximately 2:30 a.m., several town residents from the Birch Hill area called 9-1-1, reporting that someone attempted to break into their homes while they were sleeping on Wednesday, January 11.
The individual, later identified as Mr. Ianiro, was scared away by the residents while attempting to access their homes.
Sgt. Kaiser was responding to the area and observed a vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed, driving away from the area. Sgt. Kaiser attempted to initiate a motor vehicle stop. However, Mr. Ianiro refused to stop traveling through several neighboring towns.
He eventually lost control of his vehicle and crashed into the side of a building in Livingston.
Mr. Ianiro was arrested and charged with two counts of burglary, one count of attempted burglary, Eluding, and two counts of criminal mischief. He was also issued motor vehicle summonses for an unsafe lane change, failure to follow a marked course, carelessness, recklessness, failure to obey the officer’s direction, and speeding.
He was transported to the county jail pending his court date. No injuries occurred, and no items were taken from the residences.
