Edward Homick
An alert resident’s call to police led to an arrest Tuesday of a man alleged to have taken a package off a front porch of a Central Belmont home, according to police.
The resident called police after they saw a man steal a package that had just been delivered off their porch. The man realized he had been spotted and fled but the resident obtained a description of both him and his vehicle, a black 2002 Honda Civic.
Responding officers stopped Edward Homick, 28, of Sunnyvale, as he was leaving the area. Seven packages addressed to various residents in Belmont and other Peninsula cities were found in his car. Officers also recovered a bag containing identification and credit cards belonging to multiple people, according to police.
He was arrested without incident and booked into San Mateo County Jail in Redwood City for prowling, attempted petty theft and possession of stolen property, according to police.
Investigators are working to contact those associated with the IDs and credit cards, according to police.
