Search continues for third suspect in Orinda home burglary

Officers are still searching for an outstanding burglary suspect who broke into an Orinda home Tuesday morning.

Two suspects were arrested following the interruption of a home burglary by Orinda police on Tuesday morning, authorities said. A third suspect remains outstanding.

Orinda police responded to a call at around 8:23 a.m. about a suspicious person on Knickerbocker Lane.

While officers searched the area they found a vehicle associated with that person in the driveway of a home on Lloyd Lane.

When officers went to check the vehicle, they confronted three suspects coming out the front door holding multiple items that had been stolen from the home, according to Orinda police.

The suspects immediately dropped the items and fled back home and out the back door. The home was not occupied during the burglary, police said.
