A 36-year-old San Luis Obispo woman is in custody after a homeowner watched her burglarize their bedroom and communicate with them through a security camera system in Grover Beach, California.
The incident occurred on June 16, around 1:24 a.m., when officers were dispatched to a reported burglary in progress in the 200 block of North 10th Street.
According to the Grover Beach Police Department, the homeowner was not present at the time but was watching the burglary through a live bedroom security camera. The homeowner watched the burglar, later identified as the 36-year-old woman, rummage through their bedroom and even communicated with her through the surveillance system.
After multiple attempts by officers to contact the burglar, they received an updated clothing description from the homeowner, who had watched the woman change her clothes through the camera. Officers used this information to locate the woman nearby and found two sets of vehicle keys belonging to the homeowner in her possession.
The woman was arrested and booked at the San Luis Obispo County Jail for burglary, and the stolen vehicle keys were returned to their owner.
