A week later, officers reported they had interacted with a man, identified as Michael Moran, who resembled the suspect in several physical aspects, police said.
Moran was later identified as the suspect, according to police, who said the 45-year-old man had an active arrest warrant out of New Hampshire.
After executing a search warrant at Moran's home, officers found clothes matching the surveillance footage from the night of the break-in, police said.
Moran was arrested Monday and charged with breaking and entering at night, larceny from a building and fugitive from justice on court warrant.
After his arraignment Tuesday, he was released on personal recognizance with the condition to report to New Hampshire by Oct. 4, police said.
He was also ordered to stay away from Kyoto.
