CLEARLAKE, Calif. – Police arrested a Clearlake man on Saturday night for breaking into the home of his ex-girlfriend and violating a restraining order.
Robert Bosche, 52, was arrested in the case, according to a report from Det. Ryan Peterson of the Clearlake Police Department.
At 7:30 p.m. Saturday Clearlake Police Officers were dispatched to a residence in the 3600 block of Cottonwood Street for a report of a male breaking into a residence, Peterson said.
Peterson said that male subject later was identified as Bosche. Officers are familiar with Bosche and had been looking for him in connection to an investigation from the day prior.
On Friday it was reported that Bosche had broken into the same residence on Cottonwood Street and taken items, Peterson said.
Peterson said the residence belongs to Bosche’s ex-girlfriend, who is a protected party in a served domestic violence protective order against Bosche. Additionally, Bosche is currently on county probation out of Mendocino County for assault with a deadly weapon.
On Saturday Bosche’s ex-girlfriend reported that he was attempting to break into the residence again. Peterson said she was able to escape from the residence and was calling from a neighboring home.
As officers arrived at the residence, Bosche’s vehicle was observed parked approximately two houses away. Peterson said officers approached the front of the residence and observed the front door was open.
Due to the fact Bosche was on probation for assault with a deadly weapon, he was currently being sought for violating a domestic violence protective order and burglary from the previous day, Officer Travis Parson responded with his K-9 partner “Bear” to conduct a search of the residence.
Officer Parson gave several announcements into the open door of the residence, demanding anyone inside make themselves known. Peterson said no one responded to Officer Parson’s commands and Parson sent Bear into the residence to conduct a search of the building.
Bear located Bosche inside the residence, hiding under blankets on a futon couch. With the assistance of Bear, officers were able to apprehend Bosche, Peterson said.
Peterson said Bosche was transported to St. Helena Hospital Clear Lake’s emergency room for treatment of injuries he sustained while being apprehended by Bear.
Bosche later was booked into the Lake County Jail on the charges of burglary, violating a domestic violence protective order, resisting or dealing a police officer. Additional charges will be pending review by Mendocino County probation, Peterson said.
