Suffolk County Police yesterday arrested a man for multiple felonies after he allegedly burglarized an occupied apartment in Sayville.
Douglas Davis allegedly kicked in the front door of an apartment at 15 Greeley Ave., where he was confronted by the residents, a 38-year-old mother and her 16-year-old son, at approximately 4:25 p.m. A brief verbal argument ensued and Davis left the apartment, fleeing on foot northbound on Greeley Avenue.
