This is an impactful and successful outcome for our community,” Kirkland police Chief Cherie Harris said. “Thank you to our community members for trusting law enforcement with your story and for all our community members’ assistance along the way. And I also want to send a big thank you to the Lynnwood, Bothell, and Bellevue Police Departments for their critical assistance and collaboration in this multi-jurisdictional investigation.
Investigators later discovered the suspect often traveled between California and Washington while using "short-term rental properties" to change locations, police said. The suspected burglars also rented cars and swapped out their license plates with stolen ones, according to officials.
