An investigation following an arrest early Sunday morning led to charges being laid with four recent compound break-and-enters.

At about 4:06 a.m., police officers on patrol noticed a black Chevrolet S10 truck speeding and in the wrong lane of traffic.  Officers followed the truck to a parking lot in the 3400 block of Big Bear Boulevard where it appeared stuck in some snow.

The lone occupant was seen dashing away from the scene. He was later arrested for being identified as an individual who was wanted on a warrant.

Upon further investigation, officers suspected the S10 had been used on four separate compound break-and-enters, including:
