A neighbor called Greenwich Police and reported that two men were trying to break into a house across the street, police said. The witness stayed on the phone until officers arrived, where they discovered a broken window on a door entering the home's garage, police said.
Jimmy Fernandez, 36, and Diego Fernando Suarez Gonzalez, 38, came out of the home with their hands up and were arrested, police said.
Fernandez and Gonzalez also gave false names, driver's licences and ages to officers, police said.
When the two men's fingerprints were scanned at the Greenwich Police Department, their real identities were discovered, according to police.
