ATTLEBORO, Mass. (WLNE) — Attleboro police arrested a man and are looking for two more suspects after a home invasion on Halloween night.

Police got a call around 8:40 p.m. Tuesday from a Morse Avenue resident who claimed he saw three men run out of his home after entering through a broken window.

The three suspects, wearing dark-colored clothes, ran out of the house as the homeowners returned.

The homeowners said cash was stolen from one of the bedrooms.

A detective found 37-year-old Christopher White, of Boston, on Read Street near Tanya Drive.

White was wearing a black ski mask and a “ghillie suit” used for camouflage.

Video evidence from the break-in showed White as one of the suspects. He was taken into custody and charged with breaking and entering in the nighttime for a felony, larceny from a building, disorderly conduct, and disturbing the peace.

Police are searching for the other two suspects.

They are described as a man with a large build wearing a gray sweatshirt and jeans, and a man with a thin build wearing a gray sweatshirt and dark-colored pants.

Police believe they both hid their faces with their hoodies. The two were last seen running through the Tanya Drive neighborhood toward Interstate 95.

Anyone with information is asked to contact detectives at 508-222-1212.

White will be arraigned in Attleboro District Court on Wednesday.
