Village Cops: Four Arrested For Lloyd Harbor Crimes

Guns and jewelry stolen from village homes in recent months, according to police.

Four arrests have been made in connection with a string of recent crimes, according to village police.

At a village board meeting Monday, Lloyd Harbor Police Chief Charles Flynn confirmed three residential burglaries and one attempted break-in occurred since February in the village. Two handguns, a shotgun and approximately $100,000 worth of jewelry was stolen from homes on Sea Crest Drive, Sound Crest Drive and Gerry Lane, according to Flynn.

Police say nearly 80 percent of the jewelry was been recovered — some found in village sewer drains by Lloyd Harbor Highway Department personnel, who discovered several firearms with defaced serial numbers.
