A Bend man was arrested Tuesday on burglary and theft charges after barricading himself inside a house, according to police.
Lt. Bob Jones said officers responded to a burglary in progress at a northwest Bend home around 10:30 a.m.
When officers arrived, they found 38-year-old David Michael Taxer inside the house, Jones said.
When Taxer refused to come out, Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office K-9, “Quattro” helped police locate him in the attic.
Taxer was taken to the Deschutes County Jail and charged with first-degree burglary, second-degree criminal mischief, and theft of services.
