17 P v. Bunnell
Defendant Erik Bunnell used a metal pole to smash the glass door of a laundry room in an apartment complex that contained washing machines, dryers, and a few vending machines. After he entered the laundry room, apartment tenants could hear loud banging noises like someone was trying to break into the vending machines. He was later apprehended hiding behind a bathroom door in a friend’s nearby apartment.
A jury convicted defendant of second degree burglary. (Pen. Code, § 459.) He was sentenced to serve a total of five years four months in prison for the offense and for four prior prison term allegations the court found true. (§ 667.5, subd. (b).)
