Homeless Man Charged for Breaking in
A man was caught by the cops yesterday night after Erie police said he kicked his way into an east-side home, late on Monday night.
Police are charging 66-year-old Gerald T. Kornacki, who is listed as homeless, of forcing his way into a residence on the 1800th block of East Seventh Street. Officers were called to the crime scene around 11:30 PM to investigate the burglary. They found Kornacki on the couch inside.
A neighbor told police that the residents of the dwelling had recently been evicted. Kornacki told police that his friend used to live there and he occasionally stayed there.
Kornacki was taken into custody and was arraigned before Erie 6th Ward District Judge, Dominick DiPaolo. He was charged with burglary, criminal trespass and false identification charge and was placed in the Erie Country Prison on $10,000 bond.
Police are continuing to investigate.
