Simwerayi had to be tased after refusing police orders and resisting arrest, authorities said.
The residents were found safe and without any injuries, police said, adding that they didn't know the suspect.
Simwerayi, of Nashua, was taken to the hospital for minor injuries, according to authorities.
The 26-year-old Simwerayi was arrested and charged with burglary in a dwelling at night, two counts of resisting arrest, simple assault on a peace officer, loitering/prowling and disorderly conduct.
He's scheduled to be arraigned Friday at Nashua District Court. It's unclear if he has an attorney who could speak to his charges.
