NAPLES, Fla. (AP) — Four southwest Florida men face a combined 113 charges in a string of armed home invasions across the state.
The charges were announced Monday by Collier County Sheriff’s officials.
Authorities say the men stole thousands of dollars’ worth of items from upscale homes in the Naples area, restraining residents and disabling their cell phones before fleeing. They often stole the victims’ cars as well.
The men are being held in the Orange County Jail, where they’re awaiting trial on similar charges.
The News-Press of Fort Myers (newspr.es/1vLGRSt) reports the arrests followed an investigation by the 13-member Collier/Naples Regional Home Invasion Task Force.
The crimes date back to December. But the high-profile home invasions began in February in Collier County.
