JoCo Sheriff's Deputies Arrested Suspect Armed With Blade Reported on Homeowner's Porch
Sheriff's deputies were alerted to a man armed with a 6 inch blade at the reporting party's property Sunday, later to arrest the suspect for Burglary, Menacing, and Trespass charges.
The caller told dispatch the suspect, wearing gloves, a mask, gray sweatshirt, and black pants, was at the back door of the Sunny Valley Loop property around 9:29 p.m. He left at the time of the call on a bicycle, and the homeowner said the suspect was adamant about getting in, trying to open the sliding door.
Arriving units checked the property, and located the suspect at 9:36 p.m. He was identified as Joshua Wise, taken into custody, and then told deputies the clothes he was wearing had been stolen from TJ Maxx.
Deputies charged Wise with Attempted Burglary in the First Degree, two counts of Menacing, Methamphetamine Possession, and Second Degree Trespass. He was lodged in the Josephine County Jail.
