Rancho Mirage Business Burglarized Twice In Five Months By Same Man: Police

INDIO, CA — Members of the Palm Desert Burglary Suppression Unit (BSU) suspected that 48-year-old Long Beach man Jose Flores was involved in a December burglary in the 69-900 block of Highway 111 in Rancho Mirage. They recovered the property stolen from the business, but never found Flores. Fortunately for the BSU, he allegedly robbed the same place again Friday morning, and this time they found him.

BSU deputies arrested Flores for his involvement in Friday's burglary of a business they say he allegedly burglarized five months ago. The property recovered from both burglaries was valued at approximately $20,000. Flores was found near Clinton Street and Fred Waring Drive in Indio. He was arrested, then booked into the Riverside County jail.

Anyone with information on this case is encouraged to contact Investigator McAnallen at the Palm Desert Sheriff’s Station by calling (760) 836-1688.
