Boston Police report arresting a Stoneham man on charges he tried to break into a Jamaica Plain home clad in just a black jacket, boxer shorts and a t-shirt.

Frank Drago, 26, was arrested around 2:25 this morning when a resident of 288 Amory St. called to report a man trying to get into her residence. Police say they found Drago hiding on the second-floor porch - and his pants, sneakers and a hat lying on the ground.

Drago was charged with attempted breaking and entering a residence in the nighttime.

William provides the blow-by-blow for his neighbor's re-reroofing project, which he started today:

... Luckily I had a huge tarp to add to Josh's collection and the guys frantically started to cover up the house. This was no easy job. Check out the driving rain and the look of grit determination on Bill's face. They got it covered up in short time and now it looks like some of the houses from back home in the Ozark Mountains. ...
