Bowling Green Police arrested a suspect in four vehicle break-ins on Monday (June 9) just after midnight.
Jacob Flugga, 21, Bloomdale, was charged with theft from a motor vehicle and three counts of criminal mischief. He was taken to Wood County Jail.
Residents in the 800 block of Sixth Street called police after a woman noticed the interior lights on in her car, found the door ajar and items strewn throughout the vehicle. A ring valued at $100 and earbuds were reported missing. Another resident reportedly confronted Flugga, who took off running.
Police spotted Flugga entering a vehicle in the 800 block of Second Street. After receiving consent, police searched the vehicle Flugga was getting into, and found a jewelry box containing the stolen ring.
Officers patrolled the area and located three additional vehicles with their doors slightly ajar, glove boxes open, and items strewn throughout the front seats. According to the police report, Flugga admitted to entering three or four other vehicles.
