Detectives from the Los Gatos-Monte Sereno Police Department have cracked down on a series of construction site burglaries, leading to the arrest of a 51-year-old San Jose man. The burglar, identified as Migel Arreola Velasco, was nabbed after a thorough investigation that pinpointed him as the prime suspect, backed by his history of previous burglary arrests, as per the Los Gatos-Monte Sereno Police Department.

A granted search warrant enabled the detectives to recover not just the property stolen from local sites in Los Gatos and Monte Sereno but also items from surrounding areas. The police hope to reunite the stolen items, including various tools and equipment, with their legitimate owners. In their pursuit, the police collaborate closely with neighboring agencies to trace the long list of pilfered goods to their rightful claimants.

Migel Arreola Velasco, who now faces charges for his alleged involvement in these crimes, was found with a trove of stolen property. The full extent of the recovered goods and the specifics of the operation remain under wraps as the investigation proceeds.
