A witness observed the suspect throw a brick down on the sidewalk and flee the scene on foot. Responding officers quickly began searching the surrounding area for the suspect and observed a male, later identified as Tudor Bodrug, 20, of Boston, matching the description given out by the Boston Police 911 dispatcher.

Bodrug was walking in the area of 497 Sprague Street in Dedham, just over the Hyde Park line when officers stopped him. Bodrug and was positively identified by witnesses as the man attempting to break into the gas station.

Police added that officers had responded to the station about two hours earlier when the station's alarm went off. They noticed evidence on the front door that somebody had tried to get in, but found no suspect that time.

Bodrug was charged with attempted breaking and entering in the nighttime and malicious destruction of property, police say.

Innocent, etc.
