Late-Night Home Invasion in Palo Alto | Oakland News

At 2 AM in Palo Alto, a homeowner stumbled outside to investigate a noise—only to find a burglar, Oscar Dario Banegas, already inside, locked in the bathroom. Cameras had caught Banegas lurking earlier at 1:15 AM. Police arrived swiftly, forced entry, and arrested him without any property stolen. Banegas now faces multiple charges including residential burglary, parole violation, meth possession, resisting arrest, and giving false info. Officials say this unusual break-in is the first of its kind in the city—hopefully a one-off that lets residents breathe a little easier.
