When the bough breaks, the burglar will fall…

BOCA RATON — Boca Raton Police just had to look up to find a
suspect in a recent burglary.

A Boca Raton K-9 officer was among those searching for the suspect
when his dog tracked to a large tree. When officers illuminated
the tree with their flashlights, they observed a male, whom they
recognized as Cameron Ahern. The suspect, 22, of Boca Raton, was
charged with burglary to a vehicle and loitering and prowling.

Officers responded to a report of a burglary at 118 Sea Island
Terrance Nov. 28. A witness told officers he saw a male inside his
neighbor’s car.

Police said the witness yelled at the suspect who jumped on a bicycle
and rode away. The victim told officers his car had been rifled, but
only some loose change was taken.

Several minutes later, another victim at 2772 NW 26th Street called
police when he saw a male crouching down next to his car. The
victim yelled at the suspect who screamed and rode off on his
bicycle, police said.

Officers searched the area and saw a male run across Jog Road and
cross through a hedge-line around Boca West County Club. Police
found him on the country club property, said the report.
