Police Arrest Suspect in Milford Suspicious Activity

Milford police have arrested a man suspected of trying to get into local homes.

Police previously released home surveillance video of a man poking around a Milford home and arrested a suspect early this morning. 

Police said they arrested Walter Denike, 62, of Milford, as he was trying to break into a home on Cedarhurst Lane. Denike tried to run, bit police apprehended him.  

This is at least the third incident on the same street. Surveillance from two incidents at a home on Cedarhurst Lane showed a man covering his face opening the screen door of the home, checks to see if it's unlocked, then ringthe doorbell, Milford Police said. 

The first incident happened on July 7 at 3 a.m. and the second occurred on July 11 around 2:45 a.m.

Denike has been charged with third-degree criminal trespass and interfereing and resisting arrest. 

He is being held on $5,000 bond and is due in court today.
