These Burglars Were Caught One Hour Ago

I guess the burglars waited until Monday morning after the storm when everyone went back to work. It happened two blocks from our house. I swear I saw this kid casing the neighborhood last week on a bike.

TALLAHASSEE POLICE ARREST BURGLARS

This morning, at approximately 9:30AM, the Tallahassee Police Department received a
911 phone call in reference to a reported burglary, located at 845 Circle Drive. Upon
arrival, officers discovered two suspects inside the home stealing electronics and other
valuables. The suspects, later identified as, seventeen year old Isaiah Reeves and twenty
year old Rashard Price, fled the home upon observing the police. Reeves ignored the
officers' commands to stop and a taser was utilized to prevent him from escaping. Price
attempted to run from the scene, but gave up when he realized officers had surrounded the home.

Both Reeves and Price were taken into custody without further incident. Officers later
discovered that an observant neighbor saw the two thieves prying open the victim's door.
The neighbor then phoned police and continued watching until police arrived and arrested
the pair. “I am very proud of the citizen who took the time to be observant and became
involved by calling us. This is true community involvement and another example of how
citizens assist the police in keeping the community safe,” said Chief Dennis Jones.
