AN ATTEMPTED BURGLARY ON SATURDAY NIGHT DIDN’T QUITE GO THE WAY THE ALLEGED BURGLER HAD ANTICIPATED.

LIEUTENANT COREY KASUN OF THE PRESCOTT POLICE DEPARTMENT SAYS THAT OFFICERS WERE SENT TO EASTWOOD DRIVE WHERE THEY FOUND PRESCOTT RESIDENT, 25-YEAR-OLD ADRIAN MARQUEZ, BEING DETAINED BY THE HOMEOWNER AND A NEIGHBOR.

MARQUEZ, WHO WAS EXTREMELY INTOXICATED, WAS TAKEN INTO CUSTODY WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. HE WAS LATER BOOKED INTO YAVAPAI COUNTY JAIL FOR ATTEMPTED BURGLARY, CRIMINAL TRESPASS, AND CRIMINAL DAMAGE.

HIS INTENTIONS FOR ATTEMPTING TO ENTER THE RESIDENCE ARE UNKNOWN.
