MIPD officers arrest trespassing suspect caught on surveillance video

Mercer Island police officers arrested two subjects this week, one suspect for trespassing and the other suspect for felony possession of a stolen vehicle.

Both suspects were apprehended after officers tracked down the white minivan with a broken windshield that they were driving in, a vehicle that officers were on the lookout for following a First Hill trespassing.

According to a police report, after several First Hill residents captured home surveillance footage of an individual trespassing on their property, officers used the footage to pinpoint a primary suspect known to be associated with the minivan. A search warrant was obtained for the minivan and additional evidence was collected.
