Man faces burglary charges

TAMPA -- First, Reinaldo Figueroa cut a hole in the fence surrounding Bond Auto Sales, police said.

Next, he found a car on the sales lot at 7901 N Florida Ave., forced his way into that vehicle's trunk and snatched a jack before heading to the dealership's garage door, and he then propped the door open and sneaked inside, police said.

Turns out, a witness watched it all go down and called Tampa Police. Figueroa, 26, tried to run, police said. Now, he faces three felony burglary charges and one felony grand theft auto charge.
