A member of a construction crew accused of breaking into a Hudson home where the crew was working was found guilty by a jury Tuesday, according to the Summit Couny prosecutor’s office.
Prosecutor Sherri Bevan Walsh announced Nov. 18 that Steven Seabeck, 40, of Akron was found guilty by a jury of burglary, grand theft and menacing. Seabeck will be sentenced Dec. 16.
The prosecutor’s office provided this narrative of the Jan. 24 incident:
“Seabeck was part of a construction crew doing work on the victim’s home. The victim was sleeping in his bed when he heard someone in his house. He chased Seabeck down the stairs but fell before he could get a good look. The intruder escaped out a side door. There were no signs of a forced entry.
“Hudson police responded to the scene and found a blood trail in the basement and on a wall leading to the upstairs bedroom. They also found a print on a bottle taken out of a liquor cabinet by the intruder.
“Hudson police asked everyone from the construction crew to submit DNA swabs for comparison. Seabeck would not comply. He was eventually picked up by Akron police and turned over to Hudson police. His DNA was tested and matched all blood and prints from the scene of the crime.”
