Washoe County Sheriff’s Office Patrol Deputies arrested Cesar Diaz, 38, of Reno March 2, 2022, on multiple charges after he was found illegally inside a home – with a 15-year-old girl alone in the residence.
Deputies were initially called to the home shortly after 8:00 a.m. Wednesday by a neighbor reporting a man inside a residence in the 600 block of Winchester Drive. The neighbor had been called by the teenager who was in her bedroom at the time.
When deputies arrived on scene, they helped the teen get out of the house safely and go to the neighbor’s. Deputies then searched the home, made multiple attempts to get Diaz to make himself known, and ultimately found him hiding in the garage. Diaz was known to deputies as they had arrested him on March 1, 2022, for violating an eviction and lockout notice from the same residence. On Tuesday, Diaz had been charged with one misdemeanor count of Trespass, Not Amounting to Burglary and had been released on his own recognizance.
Deputies arrested and charged Diaz on March 2, 2022, for one gross misdemeanor charge of Unlawful Reentry of Real Property, and one misdemeanor count of Resisting a Public Officer.
