CLEARLAKE, Calif. – A call about a possible burglary led to a San Francisco man’s arrest for weapons and drugs.
Sirryan Dawayne Dumetz, 23, was taken into custody on Thursday afternoon, according to a report from Sgt. Dominic Ramirez of the Clearlake Police Department.
At 4:45 p.m. Thursday officers from the Clearlake Police Department were dispatched to a residence in the 13000 block of Lakeshore Drive for a report of a possible burglary in progress, Ramirez said.
A witness saw a male subject jumping the fence into the fenced property and notified police. Ramirez said it was reported there were three other subjects associated with the male who jumped the fence.
Ramirez said officers arrived on scene, locating a vehicle parked in front of the residence and saw the top of the wooden fence sustained damage, indicating someone had jumped the fence.
When officers approached the residence, a female was located outside along with three males inside the home, Ramirez said.
Ramirez said Dumetz was located in the living room with an unidentified male who ultimately jumped through a rear window of the residence with another unidentified male and fled the scene.
Surrounding Dumetz was approximately 12 pounds of processed marijuana packaged in numerous bags, which Ramirez said was indicative of sales.
There was also a black duffle bag in Dumetz’s immediate possession with more packaged marijuana, an AK 47-style assault rifle with a high capacity magazine, which contained live ammunition, Ramirez said.
Ramirez said Dumetz ultimately was arrested for marijuana for sales, possession of an assault weapon and possession of a high capacity magazine. He was booked into the Lake County Jail, with bail set at $15,000.
At the conclusion of the investigation it was determined a burglary had not occurred, Ramirez said.
