Anthony Rastelli, 22, was charged with burglary and criminal trespassing. He was preliminarily arraigned before on-call District Judge Brian Marriott and held on 10 percent of $25,000.
Bristol Township police responded to the regional technical high school on Wistar Road at 10:49 p.m. on Sunday, June 7, after receiving a 9-1-1 call stating that a man was being detained on the property.
Officers found a school security supervisor and the facility manager behind the building. The two employees were detaining Rastelli, who was seated, police said.

The facility manager relayed to an officer that he went to investigate after receiving a motion alarm notification from inside the building. When he arrived, he discovered an unlocked rear door and spotted a man inside, police said.
The intruder, later identified as Rastelli, was found sitting at a table holding a tablet, with a medical bag sitting nearby, according to police.

An officer inspecting the tablet noted it displayed a Bucks County Technical High School screensaver, police said.
An officer wrote that a sticker identifying the specific classroom assignment for the device had been peeled off.
Rastelli later told officers that he had a school calculator in his pocket, and it was returned to the school, police said.
