Anne Arundel County police arrested an 18-year-old man Saturday evening after he and a companion were spotted knocking at the door of a home in the 7900 block of Leeds Drive in Pasadena and peering in the windows.
Officers responding to a call from neighbors, who said they saw the suspects climb over a backyard fence, arrested Zachary Ryan Mitchell of Pasadena as he was climbing back over the fence, police said. The rear sliding door of the home was open and items inside the house had been disturbed, police said.
Officers reported finding drugs in Mitchell's possession upon his arrest, police said. The second suspect remained at large Sunday and was described as a white male, approximately 18 years of age and wearing a gray hooded sweat shirt, police said.
Mitchell was charged with first-, third- and fourth-degree burglary, possession of burglar's tools and possession of a controlled dangerous substance, police reported.
