An Otis Orchards man is accused of burglarizing his neighbor's house Sunday night.
Sheriff's deputies responded to a burglary in progress at E21323 Queen about 7:30 p.m. Mikhail Grishko said he came home from church and found his neighbor, Lewis Austin, in his front yard, said sheriff's Lt. Clyde Ries.
Austin, 36, of E21324 Queen, was arrested and charged with residential burglary. He is being held at Spokane County Jail.
When Grishko got home, all the lights in his house were on, and a light in a basement bedroom had been smashed, Ries said. Missing from the house were a stereo, vacuum cleaner, clock, floral bedspread and gold watch.
