Nassau police arrested a Centereach man Sunday for allegedly burglarizing a Massapequa home last month. 
Ralph Phillips, 28, broke in through the rear door of an unoccupied Pittsburgh Avenue home, then cut and removed copper piping throughout the home on Oct. 19, according to 7th Squad detectives.
Damage to the house, due to resultant extensive flooding, is estimated at more than $20,000, police said.
