A vehicle burglary in the Bonaire community led to the identification of a repeat offender, according to authorities. Harris County Constables nabbed a suspect in a car break-in that occurred yesterday, when deputies arrived at the 11700 block of Loyola Drive following a complaint of burglary.
The suspect, identified as Andre Phylx Burton, was allegedly found to have unlawfully entered a vehicle and lifted valuables from within. Burton, a figure familiar to law enforcement, has past convictions, moreover, for the same crime. In a statement from Constable Mark Herman's office, authorities indicated that Burton's criminal history includes two prior arrests for burglary of a vehicle.
Currently held in Harris County Jail on unrelated but serious charges including Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon, Unauthorized Use of a Motor Vehicle, and Evading arrest, Burton now faces additional charges. His wrap sheet was expanded to include Burglary of a Vehicle with Previous Convictions, as revealed in a Facebook post by Constable Mark Herman's office. No information on Burton's bond or future court dates has been made available at this time.
