Suspect in Home Burglary Arrested; Second Suspect Still At Large

Temecula Police arrested one suspect in a residential burglary Friday afternoon and are searching for a second suspect, according to Sgt. Joseph Greco.

Officers responded to a home in the 30000 block of Jedediah Smith Road just after 4 p.m. and found that it had been burglarized and a white Chevy van had been stolen, according to Greco. Officers spotted the van in the neighborhood and followed it to the 31000 block of Pescado Drive, where the driver bailed and attempted to flee on foot.

Officers searched the area and arrested the suspect, 37-year-old David Michael Sare of Corona. Sare was out on bail for a previous burglary charge, according to Greco. A female suspect was not in the van and police have released a photo of her taken in a Temecula sandwich shop earlier on Friday.

Sare was arrested and booked into the Southwest Detention Center for residential burglary, possession of stolen property and committing a crime while out on bail, all felonies. Sare’s bail was set at $35,000.

Police believe that other people may have victimized by Sare and his accomplice. Anyone with information is asked to call Temecula police at (951) 696-3000.
