IRVINE – Police are searching for a man who fled after being seen inside an Irvine house on Monday by a babysitter.
The man was also seen on surveillance video breaking into the home in the Woodbury neighborhood a little after 12:30 p.m., Irvine police spokeswoman Kim Mohr said on Tuesday, Aug. 1.
“The suspect smashed the rear sliding-glass door,” Mohr said in a statement. “A babysitter returned home with a child who resides at the home and discovered the suspect on the staircase. He ran past the babysitter and fled through an open garage door.”
The suspect was described as 18- to 25-year-olds old, black, about 170 pounds with black hair. He had on a long-sleeve blue and white shirt with the No. 3 on a sleeve. He wore black Adidas sweatpants with white stripes down at least one side, blue tennis shoes and blue gloves. He was carrying a blue backpack with white polka dots.
