If you have it, please. >> Yes. Okay. >> This is I have him coming in and leaving. >> You can watch it when we get to the apartment, too. >> Okay. >> He was there for like 10 minutes. like inside the apartment for 10 minutes. >> Yes, >> that's literally they would have no idea except for that and their stuff is gone. >> He let himself in at 6:40 a.m. And I know this because my roommate who owns the ring text. >> She said, "Dear friends, you're a black guy that came into our apartment on the ring.

Like, "Are you alive?" >> The door's not was not locked now. >> No, I have a problem. I mean, yeah. I never lock my door in this apartment, which a lot of people don't, but I mean now I do every night, but like that's my fault for not telling them. I usually lock it. Like I should have >> Okay, you guys should consider locking the door. I know it's hard to get into these complex, but there's ways to get around it. >> He could live here or probably not. >> I don't know.

There's Apple watches, more more expensive things, iPads. I guess those are harder to steal because they have trackers.

And both of you guys were in there asleep. >> Yes. And I'm also supposed to fly back to school. So, my dad told me that I might need a police report to get a new license. Is that true? >> Yes. I'm going to give you a card. Um, and I'm not sure if you could do it online, but it will be stolen. >> They should be able to mail you a new one. All right. Anything was taken from this house. >> Not that we know of. >> Okay. >> Yeah. I mean, he was in here for 10 minutes, so like I don't know what they were. >> Yeah.

That's a resident here. >> You know, we're probably going to need some info for that person so we could um go talk to him. Clearly, I mean, you could see him checking doors. So, >> yeah. Well, I'm sure it's on other people's rings, too. >> Yeah. I just feel like if he lived here, he wouldn't do that where he lives because it's like such a higher chance of getting caught. >> But also, he looks wast. >> Yeah. >> Going to watch the video again. >> There's like a >> Wait, wait, wait, wait. >> 20s. >> Someone I know what it is. >> Are you serious? >> Yeah, >> that wasn't it.

The suspect fled, but was ultimately taken into custody. The officer discovered multiple IDs and other items on him, including a vape. While returning the items, they discovered that there were a total of nine apartments he hit. The suspect was charged with 25 counts of burglary in the first degree. During court proceedings, the majority of those burglary counts were nullst, meaning the prosecution dismissed them. However, on count one and count four, the suspect entered a guilty plea. For each of those counts, he was sentenced to 20 days of confinement and seven years of probation, including a completion of a 60 to 90day program in the probation detention center. Several of the remaining burglary charges were reduced to lesser charges, included criminal trespass. The defendant pled guilty. The defendant was also convicted of one count of obstruction of an officer.
