— from Zac Reimer, Undersheriff —
On Saturday, October 26 at approximately 11 p.m. Deputies on San Juan Island responded to a residence on Kasnyku Ln off of Misty Isle Dr. It was reported that the suspect entered an occupied home. That suspect was taken into custody a short time later.
It was discovered that another burglary took place in the same neighborhood to a shed. Another resident in the area saw the suspect walking on a roadway in the area.
With a suspect in custody, this case is still under investigation. However, the Sheriff’s Office is seeking information regarding the incidents and are really hoping folks will come forward and report any sightings of him or if they are a victim of a crime. It will help put the investigation together.
If you have any information relating to any of the incidents or notice that you were a victim of a burglary or theft please contact Detective Lukas Peter at 360-378-4151.
