(FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - A Taunton man suffering from a late night craving was arrested early
Thursday morning after smashing through the front door of the Country
Store in Foxborough and stealing cigarettes and candy bars.
Edward Cowen, 25, of 18 Rockland St., is facing several charges,
including breaking and entering, after he allegedly broke into the
Country Store located at 212 North St. around 2:19 a.m. on Thursday.
Police in Foxborough responded to the scene after receiving a phone call from an alarm company.
When they arrived on scene, they observed that one of the front glass
doors had been smashed. However, there was no sign of a suspect.
