PORT ANGELES — More charges are expected to be filed Friday against a Port Angeles man under investigation for multiple burglaries in Clallam County.
Sean V. Della, 26, has been in the county jail since late Sunday, when he was arrested for investigation of second-degree possession of stolen property.
The current charges could be amended Friday, although it was not known Wednesday what they could be, said Jesse Espinoza, deputy prosecuting attorney.
On Wednesday, police added two counts of second-degree burglary and one count of second-degree theft from a building to their accusations against Della, who remained in custody that afternoon on $20,500 bail.
A hearing had originally been set for 1 p.m. Wednesday to formally charge Della with second-degree possession of stolen property.
That was delayed until 9 a.m. Friday because of scheduling difficulties in the Clallam Public Defender’s office.
Della already had been scheduled for a Friday hearing on an attempted burglary charge after a December break-in try at White Cup Espresso in Sequim.
Della’s arrest Sunday was after that morning’s burglary of Spotlight Tanning and Apparel, 715 E. First St.
Using a video from her store, owner Mandi Gallacci identified Della on Facebook and, along with several friends, tracked him to an apartment at 934 W. Lauridsen Blvd., according to court records.
She called police, who took Della into custody after he fled out the back window of the apartment. Officers found him at South C and West Madrona streets.
Possible new charges could be in relation to Saturday’s and Sunday’s burglaries at Spotlight and Sabai Thai, 903 W. Eighth St., Espinoza said.
