A call from an alert resident led to the capture of a would-be thief this week.
Joseph Freeland Montgomery III, 27, of Livermore was arrested in the 5900 block of Laurel Drive at about 1:30 a.m. July 29 for receiving stolen property, violating a court order and a probation violation.
A caller witnessed a man peering into cars and called police, who later found the vehicle, based on the description provided. A driver’s license reported stolen in Oakdale was recovered from the car.
