| March 4, 2014 1:22 PM

Post Falls Police arrested 24-year-old Spokane resident Ryan Hanson Monday for burglary from the Walmart at 3050 E. Mullan Avenue. 

 Police received a call from Walmart at approximately 4 p.m. with information that a male suspect was in the store stealing items, the same male suspected in several other burglaries from both Post Falls Walmart locations. The suspect left the business before officers arrived. Shortly thereafter, officers located the suspect's vehicle and contacted Hanson. He was in possession of the stolen property and arrested for burglary.

 Post Falls Police investigators contacted and interviewed Hanson at the Kootenai County Public Safety Building on Tuesday. He admitted to three other burglaries from the Post Falls Walmarts over the past two months. Additional charges have been filed for all three burglaries.
