Man out on bail on Hyde Park burglary charge arrested on even more Hyde Park burglary charges

A Jamaica Plain man who prefers breaking into Hyde Park businesses and homes faces 20 years in prison after his arrest earlier this month following a string of break-ins between August and October, the Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports.

Christopher Fisher, 49, with a 14-page criminal record, was arraigned last week on the formal charge of being a common and notorious thief in West Roxbury Municipal Court, the DA's office says - adding a break in the case came when a Suffolk County corrections officer recognized him on a photo Boston Police had distributed.

Fisher was arraigned back in February for a housebreak on West Street in Hyde Park; the DA's office says he used his release on bail in that case to pick up where he'd left off:

Fisher is accused of breaking into a Hyde Park Avenue residence on August 18 while the victim was at work and stealing a laptop and other items. A security camera inside the building where the break-in occurred captured a man later identified as Fisher wearing a maroon t-shirt bearing a Florida State Football logo that had been stolen from the victim’s residence, prosecutors said. Boston Police criminalists later matched fingerprints at the scene to those on file for Fisher.

On Sept. 8, Boston Police responded to the scene of an overnight break-in at a Fairmont Avenue hair salon where electronics and hair extensions were taken. The incident was captured by a security camera inside the business; that footage captured the suspect wearing the same maroon shirt taken during the August home break-in.

Also on Sept. 8, officers responded to the scene of another overnight break-in at a Truman Parkway business. Security cameras at the location captured that incident, as well.

In the fourth incident, Fisher is accused of breaking into a Dana Avenue home on Oct. 17 and taking cash and a U.S. savings bond - a crime he was linked to through fingerprint evidence, prosecutors said.

A West Roxbury judge set his bail at $5,000 on the latest charges.

Innocent, etc.
