SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — Spokane police used GPS tracking to arrest a burglary suspect.
KXLY reports police got permission from a judge to secretly attach a GPS device to the car driven by convicted burglary Robert Frates, who is suspected in a string of beauty parlor burglaries in the city.
Detectives were following his GPS signal early Saturday when he pulled up in front of a salon. Spokeswoman Jennifer DeRuwe says they had probable cause to make the arrest.
Frates appeared in court Tuesday and had bail set at $150,000.
