Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s deputies arrested a Santa Barbara man early Wednesday morning after they say he was found trespassing inside a Carpinteria home.
At about 12:20 a.m. on June 20, deputies were called to a home in the 700 block of Rincon Hill Road for a report of a break-in.
Officials say deputies saw Salvador Navarro, 37, leaving the house and took him into custody. Investigators reportedly determined he had entered the home through an unlocked door but didn’t have a chance to steal anything.
