Investigators say a large bowel movement was left in the victim’s toilet. The suspect also left behind property including clothing, boots, and a credit card.

They say video surveillance captured a woman leaving the home pulling a suitcase. They believe the suitcase contained property that included prescription medication, clothing, sunglasses, heirloom jewelry and coins.

The suspect was located in the downtown wearing some of the stolen clothing. Other stolen property, including the jewelry and coins, was recovered during the search.
