From the SPD Blotter:
Two men are in custody following an early morning burglary on Phinney Ridge.
Shortly after 3:00 am this morning, neighbors in the 6500 block of 1st Avenue NW called 911 and reported hearing shattering glass and a possible burglary at an unoccupied home. Patrol officers and a K-9 Officer Mark Wong and Ziva arrived quickly and began checking the block.
Two men took off running from the home and were quickly arrested after a brief foot chase.
Upon further inspection officers discovered a broken basement window where the suspects had entered the burglarized house.
Police found one of the suspects was carrying a large quantity of prescription pills in his backpack, as well as probable stolen items. Detectives interviewed the suspects before the two men, ages 23 and 24, were booked into the King County Jail for burglary. The suspect with the pills could also face felony drug charges.
