Buglary Suspects Arrested, Confess

Thu, Oct 28, 2010

Police are reporting that three men have been arrested, charged and confessed to the series of daytime burglaries in the Hamilton area and beyond.

It is being reported that the three are:

  • 24-year-old Matthew Kivler of Vernon,
  • 27-year-old Paul Law of Earlville,
  • and 22-year-old Kyle Lerch of Sherrill.

They were arrested Wednesday afternoon in Utica and charged with burglary.

Oneida County Sheriff's Deputies say the three are responsible for several burglaries in broad daylight in Oneida, Madison and Chenango counties over the past several weeks.

Police say the three drove rural roads, found unoccupied houses, force their way in and steal items. Items stolen included televisions, computers and jewelry.

The three suspects were arraigned in the Village of New York Mills Court and sent to the Oneida County Jail in lieu of $60,000 cash bail or bond.

The list of homes that were broken into grew from Sherburne to Verona. There were none in the village of Hamilton but several nearby, including on Newton Road.
