An Iowa City man who burglarized a business on New Year’s Day has been arrested.
According to the police report, 26-year-old Kevin Mora Sierra of the Hilltop Mobile Home Community forced entry in to a building on the 2000 block of Keokuk Street just before 5 am. He allegedly spent a significant amount of time in the business, taking multiple items including computer equipment, gift cards, and a baseball style cap.
Tips from the public led police to identify Mora Sierra, and a search warrant was secured for his residence. Investigators reportedly found clothing worn during the time of the burglary and the cap taken during the burglary. Mora Sierra allegedly admitted to possessing the stolen items, valued at nearly $6300, during an interview.
He was charged with 3rd degree Burglary and 2nd degree Theft. If convicted on both counts, Mora Sierra faces a prison sentence of up to ten years.
