SERIAL BURGLAR ARREST: This past Wednesday, Officers responded to a grocery store on the 10 block of Chestnut Avenue on a report of a burglary in progress. The suspect, 27 year old male from Concord, forced entry into a locked office. Our Officers arrived on scene in less than a minute while he was still in the office. Once the suspect exited the office, he immediately attempted to flee on foot through the rear of the store. Officers initiated a short foot pursuit but the suspect was apprehended quickly.
We discovered the suspect had 18, yes EIGHTEEN, warrants out for his arrest from numerous counties in California and Nevada. The warrants were mostly for burglary and theft related charges. Great teamwork by all the Officers involved by capturing this wanted fugitive and serial burglar.
