Burglary Suspect Arrested

On January 22, 2018, at 12:30am, Mesa Officers responded to the 2300 block of S. Farnsworth Dr. for a report of burglary in progress.  When they arrived, the homeowner reported being awakened by sounds coming from his living room.  He exited his bedroom and found his back door open and the suspect, Mark Schoenleber, hiding behind a chair in the living room.
