Grants Pass Police arrested a former Jackson County Jail inmate for prowling around a property in the southeast part of the city.
According to the Police Department, officers responded to a report of "suspicious activity" in the 300-block of SE Rogue View Lane on Saturday at about 8 a.m..
Police said a woman called 9-1-1 to report a prowler who she observed on her surveillance camera at about 3:30 in the morning and who returned about two hours later. The male subject unlawfully entered a shed on the property, but it appeared nothing had been taken.
Upon arrival, officers searched the area and located 41-year-old Genaro Joseph Elliott Montalvo who was still wearing a Jackson County Jail ID band. They said he told them he was in Grants Pass checking on multiple properties he owns.
Montalvo was placed into custody and lodged at the Josephine County Jail for 2nd-Degree Burglary and 2nd-Degree Criminal Trespass. He was being held without bail and was told not to return to the Rogue View property.
