Arlington police make arrest of familiar suspect in overnight burglary

ARLINGTON – Arlington police took a 22-year-old man into custody in connection with a burglary on March 18, less than two weeks after he was arrested in another burglary.

The most-recent incident occurred about 4 a.m. on Saturday when police responded to an alarm in the 17300 block of Smokey Point Drive.

Officers saw a person inside the building committing a burglary. After police announced their presence, the man ran out of the building and was taken into custody without incident.

The man is becoming well-known to officers, having been arrested in a burglary with a 27-year-old accomplice at the Gleneagle Country Club and restaurant early March 5.

The man was booked into the Snohomish County Jail on one count of second-degree burglary.
