A 47-year-old Taunton man is facing Massachusett's burglary and theft charges in connection with a string of burglaries across the region, the Taunton Daily Gazette reported.
While a Boston criminal defense attorney should be called to represent anyone facing Massachusett's theft charges, allegations in this case are more serious and include assault and battery in connection with the thefts.
The defendant was accused of stealing cash, jewelry, televisions and other items; in one case, a victim was hit in the head with a crowbar.
Charges included breaking and entering, destruction of property, larceny of a firearm, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and malicious destruction to property.
The defendant pleaded not guilty last week in Brockton District Court.
The burglaries occurred in East Bridgewater, West Bridgewater, Bridgewater and Middleboro. Police say the defendant may also face related charges in Holbrook, Whitman and Canton.
Detective reported the charges stem from a series of apparently related house break-ins over the past six to eight weeks.
