ABC News' Donna Hunter reports: Police have apprehended and arrested a man for the break in of Senator Chris Dodd's senate office in Hartford, Connecticut. 

The '08 Democratic presidential candidate's Connecticut office was burglarized on Saturday night. Police arrested 47-year-old Gilberto Soto in the same area as Dodd's office. Police said they were able to identify the burglar from surveillance footage taken at the senate office. The video shows Soto exiting the building with a television and computer.

Hartford Police public information officer Nancy Milroy said the police believe the break in has no political connection.  Milroy said Soto, a career criminal, had no idea he was robbing the office of a U.S. senator and White House contender.

Soto is in police custody and formal charges are pending. Dodd's office has not issued a statement on the arrest.
