A witness spotted a man allegedly breaking into a car at the Chico Kmart parking lot around 3:45 Wednesday afternoon and reportedly saw him take items from the vehicle. Officers arrived and found the suspect as he was driving in the area of East Avenue and Floral Avenue. Officers attempted to stop the vehicle but the suspect drove off. Officers pursued the suspect briefly but decided to terminate the pursuit due to the way the suspect was driving, coupled with the wet weather. Minutes later an officer spotted the suspect, identified as 35-year-old Robert Gonzalez walking near Lindo Channel. According to a Chico Police press release, officers found and searched his vehicle where they allegedly located burglary tools and the stolen items.
