Six men from Essex County have been arrested after police say they burglarized Somerset County neighborhoods for nearly a year.
The Somerset County prosecutor says there is still one suspect they are looking for. The man was identified as 22-year-old Damien Coleman of Newark.
The six other suspects, all from Newark, are in custody.
Police say the men, who range in age from 15 to 25 years old, were part of a vehicle theft ring, where they entered homes in Green Brook, Bernardsville and Bernards Township and stole the keys to Mercedes, BMW's and other high-end cars between October of 2023 and July 11.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Somerset County Prosecutors' Office.
