San Andreas Man Arrested for Burglary and Indecent Exposure
(San Andreas, CA) On January 15, 2013 at approx. 7:00 pm Calaveras Sheriff’s deputies responded to a residence on the 200 block of Pope Street, San Andreas for a 911 call regarding a burglary. Upon arrival at the residence the deputies found one man holding another man down on the driveway. During the investigation the deputies learned that the homeowner (the one holding the other male on the ground) heard a noise in his darkened kitchen. When he went to investigate the source of the noise he found a male adult, identified as Arrestee Robert Allan London (49) of San Andreas, rummaging through the kitchen cabinets. The homeowner yelled for his next door neighbor to call 911 as he chased Arrestee London outside the house, where he was able to tackle him to the driveway.
At the time Arrestee London was apprehended he was naked except for a trench coat and socks. He also had several items of property on his person that belonged to the homeowner. Upon interviewing Arrestee London he admitted to going into the house and taking items (small tools, flashlight, keys, coins and batteries). He also stated that he had been using the homeowner’s sauna, and that the deputies would find his clothes lying near the sauna. He also admitted to using the sauna in the past and did so thinking the house was vacant.
Arrestee London was arrested and booked into the Calaveras County jail on the charges of burglary, indecent exposure inside an occupied dwelling, and possession of stolen property, all felonies.
