Roseburg Police jailed a man for unauthorized use of a vehicle on Monday afternoon.

An RPD report said at 3:30 p.m. officers responded after a caller said a man was traying to gain access into numerous vehicles in the parking lot of Department of Human Services in the 700 block of West Harvard Avenue.

The 32-year-old had reportedly gained access into a vehicle prior to the officer’s arrival and allegedly tossed the belongings all over the inside. Officers detained the suspect without issue after he admitted the vehicle did not belong to him and he communicated his intent to steal from the interior.

The man was also charged with third-degree criminal mischief. Bail was set at $5,000.
