Police arrested a 26-year-old man Thursday morning after a witness spotted him allegedly attempting to burglarize a Vacaville home.
Around 4 a.m., police received a call regarding suspicious activity at a home in the 700 block of Azalea Way, according to police.
The caller said they saw a person with a flashlight in the backyard of a home. When officers responded to the residence, they saw a person inside with a flashlight, police said.

The house was empty at the time of the burglary.
Officers arrested Casavant on suspicion of burglary and as well as a probation violation, police said.
