HAMILTON, Ohio – Butler County deputies arrested a suspected burglar within days of the release of a “most wanted” poster featuring his face, Sheriff Richard Jones announced Friday.

Ismael Rey Saldana-Biurquiz was wanted on charges of aggravated burglary and intimidation of a witness since 2006, according to Jones.

Saldana-Biurquiz broke into a Hamilton home while the residents were there and later threatened to kill someone set to testify against him, Jones said.

Saldana-Biurquiz immigrated illegally to the U.S., the sheriff said.

“He is extremely dangerous and has been on the run since 2006,” Jones said. “Anyone that will break into a home while people are present is a very brazen, careless individual. “
