Burglary Residence

NW 95th Ln.

On 4/20/22, the victim advised she took her dog out for a short walk at approximately 0930 hours and was gone less than 10 minutes. When she returned, her dog ran toward the back of the home, barking. The victim heard a few words in Spanish and then heard her dog yelp. The victim then discovered her back sliding glass door was smashed. The suspect is a new hire to the victim’s flooring company and had worked in the victim’s home polishing her floors two weeks prior. The suspect has since then been a no-call no-show on jobs. It is evident by the short amount of time the suspect was in the home and the number of valuable items taken that the suspect knew the house’s layout and knew where the valuables were located.
