The Third Squad reports the arrest of an undomiciled male for numerous Grand Larcenies that occurred throughout Nassau County between September 2023 and January 2025.

According to Detectives, numerous elderly victims were contacted by the Defendant Patrick Wall, 25, stating he was a masonry worker and would be willing to perform construction on parts of their homes that needed repair.

The Nassau County Police Department urges the community to be on alert and to remind vulnerable family members, friends, and neighbors about potential scams or frauds.
