Burglary Suspect Arrested

Just after 5AM on 12/16/21, officers were dispatched to the 4600 blk S 150th St regarding a 9-1-1 call in which an unknown male was reported to have been threatening a resident with a firearm.

The caller reported that they had opened their garage door to discover that the trunk of their vehicle was open and the back door leading out to their backyard was also ajar. The victim located a 23-year-old transient male from Seattle on their property with a backpack belonging to the victim and confronted the suspect.

The suspect pointed what the victim believed to possibly be a firearm at them before fleeing on foot. Responding officers located the suspect who was detained without incident.

Upon positively being identified as the offender, the suspect was taken into custody. Multiple pieces of property believed to have been stolen from another resident were recovered from the suspect. The suspect who also had a Malicious Mischief 3rd warrant out of Burien was booked into jail.
