Three persons were arrested last Friday in the middle of a burglary attempt in Westminster.

According to the WPD, officers were dispatched in response to a burglary alarm at a business in the area of Newland Street and Westminster Boulevard at 6:30 a.m.

Arriving officers found three masked suspects trying to enter a business. The suspects sought to flee in a vehicle and on foot, but were detained without incident.

A check of records showed that two of the subjects were in Post Release Community Supervision.

All three were taken into custody for burglary, possession of burglary tools, and possession of paraphernalia. The two in the PRCS status had two violations placed as well.

PRCS is for persons released from prison after having served at least once year for a felony. They are supervised by a county probation office.
