A Wasco County transient was jailed for burglary and other charges by Sutherlin Police on Saturday.

An SPD report said the suspect from a recent burglary case was identified following another string of crimes. He was located in the 700 block of Hastings Avenue and held on existing charges as well as the new charges. The suspect failed to provide fingerprints or a name so his identity was unknown.

On Sunday the man provided his fingerprints and was identified as 23-year old Robert Norris. Monday it was determined the man had an active warrant out of Wasco County.

Norris was charged with first and second-degree burglary, reckless burning, first-degree criminal trespass, second-degree theft, third-degree criminal mischief and for the warrant. Norris was detained without bail.
