Shelton police made another arrest Thursday in connection to a string of ATM smash and grab burglaries.
Ramon Johnson, 23, of New Haven, was accused in an arrest warrant of third-degree conspiracy to commit burglary and third-degree conspiracy to commit larceny.
A second warrant also charged him with third-degree conspiracy to commit larceny and fifth-degree conspiracy to commit larceny.
The first set of charges is related to the ATM burglaries. The second set is related to a stolen vehicle.
Police said several departments have been investigating various ATM thefts, which led to Johnson’s arrest.
Shelton police said on Sept. 28, they responded to an alarm at the All Star Petro Mart at about 2:30 a.m. There, they found the windows of the shop smashed out and the ATM missing.
Later that morning, Shelton Police took a report of a stolen van from the downtown area.
The caravan was recovered with the back seats missing several days later in the vicinity of the All Star Petro Mart.
Police believe the stolen caravan was the same vehicle used to smash out the windows at the All Star Petro Mart.
Earlier this month Terrence Brown, of Stratford, was charged in connection to the same crimes.
Johnson was arraigned Thursday and is scheduled to appear in court again April 20.
A similar crime is under investigation is underway in Ansonia.
