RAHWAY, N.J. — Police arrested four New Jersey men after they were caught on video trespassing at a fire station, during which a firefighter’s coat was stolen.

The incident occurred Friday morning while firefighters were responding to an emergency call, according to the Rahway Police Department. Surveillance footage shows four men in their early 20s entering the Rahway Fire Headquarters.

“The men arrogantly entered fire headquarters through an open door,” police said. “The suspects lingered in the bay area, and even pointed to the surveillance camera. They then rummaged through the offices and buildings and left before emergency personnel returned from the call.”

Two of the men later went back to the fire department and attempted to return the stolen coat, which contained keys and a wallet, and were arrested, police said. The other two men then turned themselves late Friday night.

The men, Jonathan Kaye, Alexander Navarro-Gamboa, Nicholas Attanasio and Anthony Gallo, all 21, were charged with fourth-degree trespassing. Gallo was also charged with third-degree theft for the coat.
