A Burien Police deputy arrested a man wanted on a felony burglary warrant earlier this week after recognizing him during a routine patrol, according to the Burien Police Department.

The deputy spotted the man outside a building where he had previously been trespassed. Police said the deputy was already familiar with the man’s name due to numerous prior criminal contacts.

After running a records check, the deputy confirmed the man had an active felony burglary warrant for his arrest.

He was taken into custody and booked into jail, authorities said.
