Alleged serial burglar caught

A search of the home of a La Crescenta man arrested Sunday afternoon on suspicion of burglary yielded a treasure trove of property that appears to have stolen from local homes.

Sgt. Ray Harley of the Crescenta Valley Sheriff’s Station said jewelry, cameras, computers and other items have been linked to as many as 10 recent burglaries or thefts in La Crescenta (See Crime Blotter, A8), but much of the recovered property remains unclaimed and might belong to residents of La Cañada Flintridge and surrounding communities.

Anders Goodman, 24, was on parole for theft-related charges and is being held without bail. He faces seven charges of residential burglary, one of second-degree burglary and others for grand theft and petty theft, said Det. Frank Diana, who led the investigation.
