CAPTURED-  Federal Way Police say a home burglary suspect accused of stealing a rifle is in custody.  Public Information Officer Cathy Schrock  says tips from  Washington's Most Wanted viewers to Crime Stoppers of Puget Sound identified the suspect from surveillance video as Anthony Crow.   He is being held in the King County jail after being arrested by Fife Police after failing to appear on a drug charge. Crow is WMW Capture #759.

WANTED IN FEDERAL WAY --
Detectives are hoping you can help identify a burglar caught on camera inside a Federal Way home.

In the homeowner’s surveillance video, you see him looking through cabinets before getting quite the surprise -- spotting the camera and staring right at it.

The homeowner installed the surveillance system after being burglarized once and made a startling discovery as they watched this crook inside their home. “We see the suspect coming down the stairs holding a Ruger .22 rifle.”

Another video clip shows him swiping a very expensive bike.

Police think there's a good chance this guy was the same burglar who broke into the house the first time. “It makes you wonder when you become a victim more than once that the person is comfortable and they come back, or this is a person who is working the neighborhood."

He wore a Seahawks hat that has an older-style logo and a gray-colored bill.
