The Pasadena police department arrested an Altadena man for prowling Monday morning, and suggest he may be responsible for a string of burglaries in the southeast section of that city.

Gary Hart, 44, of Altadena, was caught after a merry backyard chase that involved K-9 units and a helicopter.  He is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday.

(If you’re old, and especially from Colorado like Altadenablog, you may remember Sen. Gary Hart, whose presidential hopes were dashed when somebody took a picture of him holding a toothsome young lady not his wife aboard a ship named "Monkey Business."  Or you may not.  Doesn’t appear to be the same Gary Hart.)
