||| FROM RON KREBS, SAN JUAN COUNTY SHERIFF |||


On April 28, 2022 Orcas Deputies served a search warrant on the residence of an Eastsound man in connection to a string of burglaries happening over the last couple of months. A 34 year old Orcas man was arrested for Burglary 2nd and transported to the San Juan County Jail where he will be booked in pending an arraignment hearing.

On April 22 at approximately 8 a.m., the Deer Harbor Marina reported a burglary that happened sometime in the early morning hours. During the course of the investigation, evidence believed to be from previous burglaries was located in plain view inside a vehicle. This prompted the deputies to apply for a search warrant on the vehicle as well as the vehicle owner’s residence.

It is believed recovered evidence ties him to burglaries dating back to December 2021.
