Man arrested for burglary

 

 

A 52-year-old Stock Island man was arrested Sunday for stealing a GPS unit and approximately 85 pounds of shrimp among other items.

 

Felipe Fonseca was charged with burglary, larceny, possession of burglary tools, and damage to property.

 

The owner contacted the Sheriff’s Office at approximately 10 a.m. after finding the lock to his storage facility on 5^th Avenue had been broken off. A Garmin GPS unit, approximately 85 pounds of shrimp, a trim tilt unit for an outboard engine, and an air pump were stolen.

 

Deputies viewed security footage and identified Fonseca from previous encounters with law enforcement.

 

Fonseca was found shortly thereafter and taken to jail.
