WOODBRIDGE — Two men face various charges including burglary, larceny, and weapons possession following separate investigations by the Woodbridge Police Department, according to the latest arrest blotter.
Lamar Lawrence, 31, of New Haven, was taken into custody on Nov. 17 after officers served a warrant while he was at New Haven Superior Court for an unrelated case.
Lawrence’s charges stem from an incident in August when he allegedly broke into a local business and stole a customer’s vehicle.
He faces charges of third-degree burglary, third-degree larceny, second-degree criminal trespass, and first-degree criminal mischief.
After his arraignment, Lawrence was released back to the Department of Corrections.
In a separate case, Kevin Cartee, 41, of Woodbridge, surrendered to police on Nov. 20.
Cartee’s arrest followed an investigation into violations of court orders in October and the discovery that he was in possession of firearms.
He has been charged with violation of a protective order, violation of conditions of release, and six counts of criminal possession of a firearm.
After posting a $25,000 bond, Cartee was transferred to the New Haven Police Department, which also had an active warrant for him.
His court date was scheduled for the same day as his surrender.
