SAN LEANDRO \u2014 A person sought by police for vandilizing four vehicles last month has been arrested, police said Thursday.<\/p>\n

The investigation started Aug. 18 with the first of the vehicle attacks. The other three all were in the same general area over the next two weeks.<\/p>\n

In a statement, police said they arrested the 37-year-old San Leandro resident on Monday after officers investigated a report from a person who heard glass breaking in the 100 block of Farrelly Drive. Police said an officer located the man minutes later, but that the man ran away when officers tried to detain him. They later caught up to him and arrested him without incident, police said.<\/p>\n

The Alameda County District Attorney\u2019s Office charged the man with felony vandalism and felony evasion of a police officer, according to court records.<\/p>\n

Police said the officers found clothing consistent with the clothing seen being worn by the suspect in surveillance footage of the earlier attacks on the vehicles.<\/p>\n

Two other acts of vandalism happened on Aug. 28.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are grateful to the members of our community whose awareness and willingness to bring these crimes to our attention helped officers identify and arrest the suspect,\u201d San Leandro police Lt. Jeff Walton said in a statment.<\/p>\n

According to police, the acts of vandalism on Aug. 28 happened in the 200 block of Cambridge Avenue and the 200 block of Bellview Drive. Police said that a community member provided officers information and that surveillance footage showed \u201cconsistent clothing, appearance and method of vandalism\u201d in those incidents, as well as one on Aug. 18.<\/p>\n

Combined, police said those elements helped investigators identify the suspect.<\/p>\n

The Aug. 18 investigation began when surveillance footage showed a person breaking into a parked vehicle\u2019s window with a rock in the 200 block of Garcia Avenue, police said.<\/p>\n

Police said they are still investigating and encouraged anyone whose vehicle may have been vandalized recently to contact them at 510-577-2740 or 510-577-3278.<\/p>\n
