A series of break-ins at area businesses and offices should end now that Statesboro Police arrested a man they say is responsible for the rash of crimes recently. At least 18 business burglaries since August 22 are likely the work of Martonio Darquez Smith, 26, West Main Street, arrested Thursday on multiple charges (nine) of burglary and one charge of cocaine possession, said Statesboro Public Safety Director Wendell Turner. Most of the break-ins have taken place around Northside Drive West and Zetterower Avenue, he said.
