DRYDEN, N.Y. — Two Ithaca men were arrested on Wednesday after allegedly burglarizing a Dryden home, according to New York State Police.

The two were arrested shortly after when they drove to Acosta's home, police say.
Both were arraigned in the adjoining Town of Lansing court and were remanded to the Tompkins County jail in lieu of $10,000 cash bail or $20,000 property bond. Their next court date in the Town of Dryden is pending.
