Calaveras County deputies have a Wallace man jailed for burglary, after a Mountain Ranch Homeowner interrupted him in the act yesterday afternoon.

Investigators say 47-year-old Thomas C. Kyle took off from the victim’s home, but not before she got a look at him and his yellow Dodge Pickup truck. A short time later, deputies say they spotted the truck and turned up some stolen items in Kyle’s possession. He’s being held under more than 70-thousand dollars bail on the burglary charge and an unrelated warrant.
