A 46-year-old West Nyack man has been arrested and charged in connection with a burglary at a local restaurant on South Liberty Drive, according to the Stony Point Police Department.

Christopher Pascale was taken into custody on August 25, 2025, at approximately 3:12 PM, following a joint investigation by the Stony Point Police Department, Rockland County Sheriff’s Office, and Clarkstown Police.

At approximately 9:35 AM the same day, Stony Point Police received a report of a past burglary at the restaurant. Upon arrival, officers spoke with the business owner who reported finding the cash register pried open and loose change scattered across the floor upon opening the restaurant.

Detectives from the Stony Point Detective Bureau and the Rockland County Sheriff’s Office BCI responded to the scene and reviewed surveillance footage from both the restaurant and surrounding area. The footage reportedly showed a male suspect using a screwdriver to pry open the cash register and remove between $300 and $500 in cash before exiting through a rear door.

Investigators recognized the suspect from a similar recent burglary at a restaurant in Nanuet, NY. Working collaboratively, detectives identified the suspect as Christopher Pascale, who was found staying at the Budget Motor Inn in Stony Point under an alias. Surveillance was set up, and Pascale was taken into custody without incident after exiting his room.

He was interviewed by detectives from both Stony Point and Clarkstown police departments and subsequently charged with the following:

  • Burglary in the 3rd Degree

  • Criminal Mischief in the 4th Degree

  • Possession of Burglar Tools

Pascale was processed, arraigned, and remanded to the Rockland County Jail. He is scheduled to appear in court on August 29, 2025, at 11:00 AM.

Please note: A criminal complaint is merely an accusation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
