Description
Mrs. Pauline Lynch testified she awoke early in the morning on February 7, 1971 and observed a man burglarizing her home. At this time, she sat up in bed and "froze," staring at the man for some time. From the street-light shining through the open bedroom windows and the light from the bathroom, she could clearly see the mans face. Having observed the man for several minutes, she was able to describe him to the police. The description was relayed to the dispatcher who broadcast it to other units in the area. The burglar was described as a man wearing a brown corduroy jacket and blue jeans, dark hair, and running toward Omaha Street. The arresting officers received the message, went to Omaha Street two blocks from the complaining witness home, and observed a man fitting the description. After the officers stopped the appellant and radioed in that they had a subject fitting the dispatchers description, the dispatcher gave the description of a knife that was taken from the Lynch residence. At this time, the officers conducted a search for a yellow pocket knife with an acid stain which was found in appellants possession. Later at trial, Mrs. Lynch identified the appellant as the man in her home on the night of the burglary.
