WOBURN — Three men allegedly involved in a brazen daytime break-in at a home on Salem Street in June were recently indicted by a Middlesex Grand Jury.
The trio is now facing arraignment in Middlesex Superior Court, Woburn on Tuesday, Sept. 14 on charges of breaking and entering, conspiracy, wanton destruction of property and resisting arrest.
William Seaburg, 24, 26 Highland Ave., #3, Somerville; Philip George Carter, 26, 6 Guild Rd., Burlington and Peter Carter, 26, of Burlington were observed running away from Salem Street toward Turnbull Avenue and Emerald Street after Patrolman Kenneth Silva was dispatched to the scene at 7:05 p.m. Saturday, June 19. A Salem Street resident heard what sounded like the firing of gunshots and reported seeing the three men crawling through the window of a neighboring home. One of the men reportedly was wearing what appeared to be white rubber gloves.
