A man is facing charges for stealing a lawnmower from a school in East Lyme. Police say 22-year old Nikolaus Trombley was caught on tape, stealing the lawnmower from East Lyme High School. Police say he stole it in the middle of the night and then took it for a ride.
Police say Trombley told them he was drunk and looking for a place to sleep when he broke into a trailer behind East Lyme High School. He was looking for the keys to the school when he spotted keys to a Scag Mower and decided to go on a joy ride instead.

Police say Trombley rode the three miles to his parent's house, mowed their lawn and was on his way to return the mower when he abandoned it near the intersection of Boston Post Road and Spring Rock Road. He's charged with third degree larceny and burglary.
Surveillance video taken at 2:07 early on Wednesday morning shows Trombley riding by the Boston Post Road building. Police say Trombley, formerly of Vermont, is now living in his parent's East Lyme home.
