Plans to replace the dilapidated mobile home that used to house the caretaker - a double-wide that was purchased for $79,950 in 2007, by the way - were approved amid fireworks from Portland city council members Randy Leonard and Amanda Fritz.

The caller said they heard glass break, and looked to see someone crawling through a back window.

Officers set up containment around the building, which is a house with a business on the main floor and a residence on the lower level.

Officers rang the doorbell and the suspect went to the back window he entered through, saw officers, then went out the front door where he complied with commands and was taken into custody and identified as 42-year-old Clifford Towers.

Towers was charged with Burglary in the First Degree and Criminal Mischief in the First Degree and booked into the Multnomah County Jail.
