SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - A man has been arrested after he was captured on video by a Sacramento home security camera officials say he was trying to steal.

The Sacramento Bee reports (https://bit.ly/2gEXCwL ) that the 33-year-old man was arrested Sunday on suspicion of theft and violation of probation. He has since been released from jail.

Sacramento police were called Sunday to reports of a thief stealing a surveillance camera from a home. When officers arrived at the scene they watched surveillance video of the theft and saw the image of a man taking the camera. The image was linked to a man who had been seen in the area earlier in the day.



The officers recovered the stolen camera after arresting the suspect.
