Man Charged In Unusual Burglaries
(Portland, OR) -- The suspect in several unusual burglaries has been indicted by a Multnomah County grand jury. Prosecutors say Tyler Long allegedly broke into vacant storefronts by cutting through interior walls to access valuable merchandise in neighboring businesses. In one case, multiple tablets, cell phones and computers were taken from an AT&T store in North Portland. A similar hole in the wall allowed access to a northeast Portland jewelry store. Long has an extensive criminal history and was on probation for 18 days when the crime spree began last November. He was indicted on numerous burglary and other charges this month.
