LFP Officers catch residential burglary suspect

Lake Forest Park officers responded to an LFP address where a subject had entered the home while the homeowner was in the shower.

The homeowner exited the shower and confronted the subject who was in the bedroom. The subject fled. Both homeowners attempted to search for the subject while providing a description and direction to dispatchers via 911.

Officers located the subject in the area a few hours later and conducted a field show-up that was positive. The subject was arrested and later booked for residential burglary and possession of methamphetamine.

The stolen property from the original burglary was recovered and returned to the homeowner. Other property was recovered, possibly from a separate, unreported burglary. It was retained as evidence.
