Burglary isn’t the wisest career path. But burglarizing an FBI agent’s home — well, that’s just downright dumb.
Jeffrey Michael Drach, 20, and Justin Wesley Case, 21, were each sentenced Monday to two years in prison for the November burglary of the agent’s Yorba Linda, Calif. garage, the Orange County Register reported.
The agent, only identified by the District Attorney’s Office as “James M.”, caught the men inside the Orange County garage around 2 a.m., identified himself as law enforcement and ordered them to stop, the paper reported.
As they fled in a pickup, the agent fired shots, but no one was injured, the paper said. Authorities found the pickup two miles away. Two other suspects tied to the case are under investigation.
