LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport Police Department is urging the community to be on the lookout for a male subject who police believe is responsible for at least one burglary – and possibly more – on Tuesday afternoon.

The report said officers were dispatched to the 300 block of Sixth Street just before 3 p.m. to investigate the report of a male subject who was burglarizing the residence and loading the stolen items into the victim's pickup truck.

Police said the victim saw the subject, who fled toward Fifth Street with a hammer in his hand.

The subject is described as a white male adult, in his late 20s or early 30s, 6 feet tall with a thin build, short dark brown hair and a goatee, and wearing a black shirt, cut-off jean shorts and black skate shoes. He has tattoos on his arms and hands.

Officers located five firearms and a bag of ammunition in the victim's pickup truck. The firearms were determined to not belong to the victim, according to the report.

Police believe the firearms may have been stolen from another residence in the vicinity and placed there by the burglar.

Another residence from across the street also was burglarized, and the Lakeport Police Department said it's believed that there are other locations that were burglarized that have not yet been reported.

Lakeport Police and Lake County Sheriff's units currently are searching the Lakeport area, with police receiving reports citizens shortly before 3:30 p.m. that the male subject was in the downtown Lakeport area.
