The suspect was later identified as 27-year old Robert Kemp of Roseburg. Kemp was contacted on Tuesday in the 200 block of Jackson Street in downtown. Additional evidence was collected linking the man to the burglary.

Kemp was charged with second degree counts of burglary, attempted theft and criminal mischief along with a third-degree count of theft. Bail was set at $323,750.
