A man suspected by law enforcement of being responsible for at least three recent burglary or trespassing incidents in Yamhill County was detained in Newberg last week.
The Newberg-Dundee Police Department reported a burglary in progress at a home in the 800 block of Dayton Avenue at about 8:43 a.m. on July 9.
“The homeowner reported finding a male suspect exiting through the front door of his residence,” the release said.
The suspect, 22-year-old Cano Francisco-Sebastian, attempted to evade police on a bicycle, according to the announcement. He didn’t get far before being nabbed for briefly resisting police.
A further inquiry revealed that Francisco-Sebastian was involved in three burglary and trespassing occurrences throughout the county.
“(Francisco-Sebastian) is believed to have committed other property crimes that have not yet been reported to law enforcement,” the release said.
Homeowners who suspect Francisco-Sebastian, or anybody else, of burglarizing their house or business can contact the Newberg-Dundee Police Department at 503-538-8321 or the Yamhill County Sheriff’s Office at 503-434-7506.
