Police are asking for the public’s help with information concerning an apparent attempted burglary that occurred in the Sparr Heights area on Wednesday.

A neighbor had called police to report suspicious behavior by two men in the 3400 block of Las Palmas Avenue.

When a police unit arrived two men fled from the backyard of the residence. One suspect John Livingston, 19, is in custody. The second suspect has been identified as Brian Gonzales.

Police believe these men walk local neighborhoods wearing backpacks, walk to the rear of homes and enter through a window or pry open a door.

If anyone has any information on the whereabouts of Gonzales please contact Glendale Police at (818) 484-1968.

Please report any suspicious activity in your neighborhood to police or sheriffs.
