Second check of fingerprints turns up Le Roy burglary suspect

By Howard B. Owens

A former Le Roy resident is accused of breaking into a business in the village 11 months ago and stealing money.

Det. John Condidorio made the arrested based on fingerprints the alleged burglar left behind.

Eleven months ago, investigators could not find a match in the State Police database for the latent prints lifted from the scene of the burglary.

But a second check recently found an apparent match to Nicholas S. Dellarocco, 22, currently residing at 1232 Latta Road, Greece.

Dellarocco was reportedly arrested not long ago for another alleged burglary in Monroe County. At that time, he was fingerprinted and his prints added to the state database.

He's been charged in Le Roy with burglary, 3rd, petit larceny and criminal mischief.

The alleged break in occurred May 3, 2009. A local business owner reported that someone broke into the building, damaging doors to gain entry and damaging a cash register in a quest for money. Whomever broke in did find money in a second cash box inside the business.

Dellarocco was arraigned and jailed on $5,000 bail.
