ASBURY PARK — Police caught a city man inside a Munroe Avenue business
where, they say, he was stealing copper flashing.

After they took him into custody in connection with that theft, they
continued their
investigation and also charged him with burglarizing a vacant house in
the city, police said.

Around 3:30 a.m. Sunday, police received an anonymous call reporting a
burglar at AA Alliance Floors, said Capt. David Kelso.

When Officer Daniel Kowsaluk responded, he noticed the door leading to
the basement storage area was open.

Police found Victor Bastida, 33, of Ridge Avenue, at the bottom of a
ladder in that storage area, said Kelso.

Bastida had wire cutters and a wrench, police said.

After an investigation, police also determined the 33-year-old city
man broke into a Grand Avenue house that is under construction, said
Kelso.

Bastida was charged with two counts of burglary, and one count each of
theft and possession of burglary tools.

He was sent to the Monmouth County Jail, with bail set at $10,000.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call Detective
Connie Breech at (732) 502-5777.
