Car Break-in at School Leads to Arrest

A man was arrested on suspicion of breaking into a car in a Temecula school parking lot.

Nhan Van Nguyen, 36, of Temecula, allegedly smashed the window on a car before 9:50 a.m. on Friday at Linfield Christian School, according to sheriff's Sgt. Jon Wade.

The victim told deputies she parked and locked her vehicle in the parking lot, and when she got back, she found her window shattered and her things missing.

She gave them a list of her missing things, and deputies watched video footage of the lot and got the suspect's vehicles description and license plate number, the sergeant said.

They then checked the neighborhood around the school and found the car parked in the suspect's driveway in the 41000 block of Via Puerta, Wade said.
