Vancouver resident Cole Shielly taken into custody and charged with Burglary
On Friday (March 3) at about 12:34 a.m., a citizen called 9-1-1 to report they could see a subject inside the secure gated area at Caliber Collision, located at 7631 NE Highway 99 in Vancouver.
The caller reported the subject appeared to be attempting to access vehicles which were stored inside the fenced area. Clark County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded and quickly located the suspect, who attempted to flee on foot.
Law enforcement surrounded the area within minutes. A small Unmanned Aircraft System and Police K9 were deployed to track the suspect through the fenced lot, where he was eventually located inside the cab of a box truck.
A brief standoff ensued, during which time the suspect refused to exit the vehicle for approximately 20 minutes. Eventually, the suspect surrendered and was taken into custody without incident. He was identified as Cole Shielly, 31, of Vancouver.
Shielly was booked into the Clark County Jail for Burglary in the second degree as well as an outstanding warrant.
