Marietta police have arrested a man in connection with a string of residential burglaries.

Christopher Palmer was charged Oct. 2 with felony burglary. He is being held in the Cobb Adult Detention Center without bond.

While investigating several burglaries in southwest Marietta, police found evidence linking three of them. That led to Palmer’s arrest.

The investigation is ongoing and additional leads are still being investigated.
