Charged: Burglary (F), Malicious Injury to Property (m)
Boise Police were dispatched to a
business-shopping complex on S. Vista near Cassia Street Sunday
morning, July 24th at approx 3:17 a.m. A witness who works at a
nearby business reported seeing a man trying to open the doors of
several of the businesses, then breaking into one store by going
through the glass paned front door. The witness saw the suspect
dragging something out of the store that appeared to be a cash
register. The witness was able to describe the suspect to
dispatchers as wearing a yellow shirt and having bright red dots in
his hair with bright red painted sideburns.
Boise Police officers recognized the
suspect description. They had, just two hours prior come across an
individual with the same, rather unique description after a citizen
has called the individual in as being a suspicious subject,
possibly a prowler in the same neighborhood about 1:15 a.m.
Officers had located and talked with the man, but had found no
evidence of criminal activity.
When officers arriving on scene of the
retail burglary they saw cash register tape strewn across the
parking lot headed east. With the help of a BPD police service dog,
officers searched and saw the suspect, identified as Buckles,
running through the side yard of a nearby home. Officers recognized
him from the witness description and they're own dealings with him
earlier in the night. Officers soon found the suspect hiding in
some shrubbery. The homeowner came outside to speak with officers,
and noticed the suspect had apparently broken the homeowner's
bar-b-que while fleeing from police (injury to property charge).
The suspect was taken into custody. Officers soon found the stolen
cash register under the bushes of another nearby home. Officers
contacted the owner of the store and were able to return the stolen
property. The cash register was reported to have not contained any
cash at the time of the burglary.
