Man charged with running burglary ring

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - June 11, 2009 U.S. Attorney Michael Levy says 37-year-old Scott Allen Hornick assembled a gang of burglars that broke into camera stores, music stores, pharmacies and other businesses from Connecticut to Virginia. Four other people have already been charged.

Hornick, who at one point was profiled on "America's Most Wanted," escaped from the Warren County Correctional Center in northern New Jersey on Aug. 6, 2001. He was arrested on a variety of charges in July 2007 in Hartly, Del. and is currently in custody.

Hornick's attorney, John Fioravanti, didn't immediately return a call for comment Thursday afternoon.
