A 28-year-old homeless man was arrested on Clarendon Avenue June 29 after he allegedly tried to break into a car to sleep there for the night.

Officers stopped Jerean Rogers at 3:20 a.m. as he ran towards Broadway, police said. A witness approached police, pointed at Rogers and said, "That is the guy who broke into the green subaru," according to police.

Police said Rogers broke into the car and rummaged through the passenger compartment.

Rogers allegedly told officers, "I went into the car looking for a place to sleep, I knew it was wrong but I decided to leave."

He was arrested and charged with breaking and entering in the nighttime for a felony.
