WESTMINSTER, Colo -- WPD responded to a report of two overnight burglaries in a neighborhood near 96th Place last week. Officers arrived, reviewed footage and collected fingerprints from the scenes leading to a positive match to a potential suspect.
A few hours later, another neighbor called to report seeing the suspect back in the area.
Officers contacted a 32-year-old man who was found in possession of several stolen items described by the victims including laptops, a backpack, IDs, money and more. C'mon man...
He was taken into custody on suspicion of Second Degree Burglary, and the recovered property was returned to its rightful owners.
