Serial burglar sought after pretending to deliver package at Wilmington home: police

A recent crime spree saw a string of homes in New Castle County burglarized by one suspect, who police are trying to identify.

Last month, several burglaries were reported at homes along Faulk Road, Fairfax Boulevard, Darley Road and nearby areas.

Police say the suspect targets empty homes, checking the front door before entering through an open door or window in the back of the house.

However, he has "forcibly" broken into some homes, according to authorities.
