NORWICH – An Afton man pleaded guilty to the top two counts against him Tuesday for his role in a string of burglaries that netted over $30,000 in stolen property while his father, and alleged co-conspirator, awaits his turn in court.

Matthew M. Snyder, 22, pleaded guilty to two counts of burglary in a plea arrangement that will send him to state prison for four years.

He will also have to pay an undetermined amount of restitution that may be more than the stolen $30,000 because it could include any damage done to property during the course of the break-ins, reported the District Attorney’s Office.

“Mr. Matthew Snyder was a young man who terrorized his community by breaking into houses and the victims of these crimes and the community were in an uproar,” said District Attorney Joseph A. McBride.
