STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- A third teen has been arrested and accused of breaking into an Annadale acquaintance's home and stealing euros and U.S. cash.
Francisco Berardi, 17, of Galloway Avenue, Port Richmond Center, was arrested Tuesday in connection with the July 6 heist.
According to court papers, Berardi and alleged accomplices Michael McQuillen and Raymond Burt drove to the residence shortly after 1 p.m. Berardi remained in the car as a lookout while his pals entered and snatched $1,065 in European Union currency and $6,000 in greenbacks, said court documents.
Two hours later, Burt and McQuillen exchanged the euros for cash at a Port Richmond bank, allege prosecutors. Those two suspects were previously arrested.
All three defendants are charged felony counts of second-degree burglary, third-degree grand larceny and third-degree stolen-property possession, said a spokesman for District Attorney Daniel Donovan. Berardi is also accused of fourth-degree stolen-property possession.
