Police say a Smithtown man was arrested for stealing a package and breaking into a Nesconset home.

Daniel Culotta stole a package from the front porch of a home on Townline Road around 3 p.m on Wednesday, Oct. 23, according to police.

The package contained a Halloween costume for the homeowner's 1-year-old son.
