Police said Logan Valle, 18, forced his way into the two
suburban homes in Falmouth, just north of Portland, while naked
on a freezing cold night in order to steal keys to nearby parked
cars. He was found hiding in the attic of one of the homes and
arrested.
He is scheduled to appear in court in Portland, Maine's largest
city, on Monday afternoon, police said in a statement on Monday.
At around the same time of the break-ins, the town's fire
department was called to the nearby home of Valle's parents,
according to police reports. His parents were not at home at the
time of the blaze, but the house was destroyed, police said.
Falmouth police also said Valle's car, which was parked at a
local country club two miles away, was also lit on fire but not
destroyed.
Police said they are investigating the cause of both fires.
