Cops nab suspect in Dyker Heights break-in
As Dyker Heights residents remained on edge in the face of a rash of home break-ins in the community, police made a burglary arrest on the night of March 19.
The suspect, identified by police as Michael Riggi, 40, of 1153 77ht St., in Dyker Heights, has only been charged with one count of burglary and not with the spree of break-ins, but a Police Department spokeswoman said “the investigation is continuing.”
Riggi is charged with breaking into a house on 11th Avenue between 78th and 79th Streets, police said.
