Tulsa Police said officers responded to a reported burglary from a vehicle near East 31st Street and South Garnett Road after the caller said a man wearing a dark sweater and a backpack had just broken into her car and stolen her purse.

The Tulsa Police helicopter was in the area and found the suspect very close to the original call location police said. The suspect was seen trying to get into another car, and patrol officers were directed to intercept.

Officers arrived at the scene and took the suspect, Dillon Honeyman, into custody after a brief struggle, Tulsa Police said.

Police said the victim had followed Honeyman and identified him as the man she saw stealing from her vehicle.

She had also reviewed footage from her home security cameras, which showed the suspect breaking into her car, police said.

Tulsa Police said during a search of Honeyman's pockets and backpack, officers found an orange Lulu Lemon purse with the victim's ID and several credit cards in it.

Officers also found items belonging to other victims, including a phone and ID for two different people.

Tools frequently used by burglars were also found in Honeyman's possession, police said.

Tulsa Police said officers contacted the other victims and one confirmed his vehicle was burglarized overnight, while the other reported her vehicle was broken into on March 7.
