Burglar eludes Vista deputies
By: North County Times - | ∞
VISTA ---- Sheriff's deputies searched unsuccessfully for a teenage burglar who broke into the home of a sheriff's correctional deputy in the Shadowridge area Tuesday morning, a sheriff's lieutenant said.
The search prompted school officials at Rancho Buena Vista High School to go into lockdown but the school was taken off lockdown by 10:25 a.m., sheriff's Lt. Bill Donahue said.
The off-duty deputy was upstairs in his home when he heard a glass window shatter at his home in the 2000 block of Freedom Way, he said. The deputy confronted a teenage boy about 8:31 a.m. inside his home, Donahue said. The teenager had thrown a rock through a side door window panel to gain entry, he said.
The teenager was cooperative with the deputy at first, but suddenly jumped up, ran out the door and jumped a fence as other deputies arrived, he said.
Deputies and a sheriff's helicopter crew searched the Shadowridge area looking for the teenager, who appeared to be about 16 years old, but they were unable to locate him, Donahue said.
