Red Bluff >> An armed neighbor intervened and safely detained a 39-year-old at gun point who had been in the process of burglarizing a Howell Avenue residence Wednesday morning.

Around 7:22 a.m. the Tehama County Sheriff’s Department received a report of a burglary in process at a locked residence on the 200 block of Howell Avenue, according to a press release.

Residents in the area reported Camron Michael Crismon was removing items from inside the covered rear porch area of the home.

Crismon was seen pushing a riding lawn mower from the back yard to the road in front of the house and seen going back and pulling a full golf club caddie and tools from behind the home.

An armed resident in the area intervened and safely detained Crismon at gun point just prior to deputies arriving.

Crismon was taken into custody without incident.

Deputies later found Crismon had caused damage to the residence and surrounding gates and had spray painted graffiti on the residence.

All property was returned to the 62-year-old owner.

Crismon was booked at Tehama County Jail for felony burglary, possession of stolen property and vandalism.

His bail was $80,000.
