FALMOUTH — Two Scarborough residents were arrested last week after a homeowner called to report a suspicious car across the street.

Police responded to a call Dec. 2 at 1:58 a.m. from a Depot Road resident who reported being woken up by car doors slamming in a neighbor’s yard.

Police allegedly found Sean Vanschaick, 20, walking out of a garage with a bicycle. Officers also reportedly discovered Stacie Sargent, 21, parked in a car in the driveway with another bicycle, golf clubs and other property in the vehicle.

The officers then found the couple had several large knives in the car.

Vanschaick and Sargent were charged with burglary, theft and trafficking in dangerous knives.

Police said the pair may be linked to other burglaries in the area, and that the cases are under investigation.
