BATON ROUGE - An unusual number of law enforcement took to the streets Monday morning in the Jones Creek area, looking for a suspect that was running through backyards of homes.

According to the sheriff's office, Fieldings was apprehended after finding him hiding under the home just after 7 p.m.

Fieldings stole a Sony Playstation 3, Playstation 4, and a gold wristwatch.

Fieldings is charged with Simply Burglary of an inhabited dwelling, Simple Criminal Damage to Property and Resisting an Officer.
