FELTON, Del. – Felton Police have arrested the suspects wanted for burglarizing a local school over the weekend.

Shortly before 3 a.m. Sunday, police responded to the Lake Forest North Elementary School in the 300 block of E. Main Street for a burglary alarm. It was determined that the two suspects broke two exterior screens and entered the building through a window. Fingerprint evidence obtained at the scene, as well as video surveillance, led detectives to identify the pair as 21-year-old Eric Davidson II and 23-year-old Jacob Flannery.

On Monday, both men were taken into custody, and the stolen computer-related items were recovered. They were each charged with third degree burglary, second degree conspiracy, theft under $1500, and criminal mischief under $1000 damage property. They were issued a no-contact order with Lake Forest North School and released on their own recognizance pending a future court date.

Police say the pair also confessed to another burglary that they were responsible for the same morning at Killen’s Pond State Park. They were turned over to the Division of Parks and Recreation Natural Resources Police.
