Two 20-year-old Schoharie men have been arrested in an investigation into two burglaries in the town, one of which targeted a house owned by New York State Assemblyman Pete Lopez.
State police arrested Connor Casabonne and Bryan Lemoine, both residents of Schoharie, on Friday, May 3. Both are charged with two counts of burglary in the second degree.
Police say the arrests followed a pair of recent burglaries -- one reported April 27, in the town of Schoharie, and one reported April 29, at Lopez's house in the village of Schoharie. In both burglaries, cash and jewelry were stolen. Some of the stolen property has been recovered, police say.

Brood II: It sounds like a low-budget horror movie. But it's real, and it's poised to engulf the East Coast from Georgia to Connecticut, an onslaught of giant bugs that have lain dormant underground for the last 17 years.
The periodical cicada is the Methuselah of insects, spending long years underground in larval form before emerging en masse in tremendous numbers. Groups of 13-year or 17-year periodical cicadas that emerge together are known as 'broods,' and New York State is home to several of them, along with several species of annual cicadas that emerge every year.
