Levittown Woman Charged in Burglary

A Levittown resident was charged with breaking into a home down the street from her own, according to Nassau County Police.

Jennifer Fontana, 25, a resident of N. Wantagh Avenue, is accused of breaking into a home on Wantagh Avenue, which sits on the same stretch of road, cops said.

At 6:55 p.m., the victim returned home to find that someone had broken into her house through a rear window, police said. The burglar took cash and jewelry before fleeing, cops said.

The investigation eventually led to the arrest of Fontana, who was charged with second-degree burglary, police said. Fontana was arraigned Sunday at First District Court in Hempstead.
