A suspected burglar broke the front door window of GVA Café early Sunday morning and entered the downtown coffee shop before Morgan Hill Police arrived to the scene.
The suspect smashed the window of the café located at 17400 Monterey Road about 3am March 4, according to police reports. Police who responded when the break-in tripped an alarm found the suspect inside and arrested him on suspicion of burglary.
GVA Café owner Renee Carrillo also responded to the shop early Sunday morning after police contacted her. She said it appeared the male suspect was intoxicated, and he didn’t seem interested in trying to steal anything as he sat calmly at a café table when officers responded to the alarm.
Carrillo added the man returned to the café the following morning, in a more sober state, and apologized for the damage to the GVA front door. He even offered to pay for the damages, Carrillo said.
