Man arrested for attempted burglary, threatening police officer

SANDUSKY – Carmine Glorioso, 37, of Sandusky, was arrested and charged with two felonies on March 5 after he allegedly attempted to break into an house and then threatened a police officer.

According to a report from the Sandusky Police Department, police responded to a Cowdery Street house after a 911 call reported that Glorioso was attempting to break down the door.

When police arrived, according to the report, they found Glorioso outside the house. According to the report, he told police that he was assaulted by a man. He claimed, according to the report, that the incident occurred when he was inside drinking and made jokes about the man’s deceased child. The report states that police noticed several scratches on the man.

The complainant claimed, according to the report, that she had just returned home when Clorioso, who was her “on again and off again” boyfriend, came to her house intoxicated. She claimed, according to the report, that he tried to start a fight with several of her friends who were visiting from out-of-town and they had to drag him out of the house. According to the report, she said that he then attempted to break down the front door and her and a friend had to hold the door closed.
