An investigation into a smash and grab burglary at the Classic Game Junkie store in the Parkway Shopping Center has resulted in the apprehension of two suspects, West Goshen Township Police said in a press release.
Police said Michael J. Haffelfinger, 20, of West Chester, was taken into custody on Wednesday, May 27; he was charged with burglary, criminal conspiracy, criminal trespass, and related offenses.
The break-in occurred at 2:36 p.m. on Monday, May 25. Police said Haffelfinger and an accomplice smashed the store’s front door and were observed on surveillance video entering the business, where they removed a PS4 console and game controllers.
After viewing the video and making contact with Haffelfinger, police said he admitted to a role in the burglary. He was processed and arraigned before Magisterial District Judge William Kraut, who set bail at $15,000, court records said.
Haffelfinger failed to post bail and was transported to the Chester County Prison to await a preliminary hearing on June 4, according to court records.
Police obtained an arrest warrant for Haffelfinger’s accomplice, believed to be Zach Torro, who has been living in the Downingtown area and is between the ages of 19 and 22, the release said. Police said he might use the nickname “Ghost” or “ Kiid Knowledgee.”
