Johnson, of Bucks County outside Philadelphia, was jailed Friday night, NBC Philadelphia reported. An online search on Sunday has yet to show him in jail.

Bucks County police issued a warning in September about a burglar in serial cars, who allegedly released security footage from Johnson who was engaged in criminal activities.

Police said last year that the suspect was behind about a thousand illegal entries in vehicles throughout Bucks County and parts of New Jersey, aiming for unlocked cars while wearing black clothing and white and orange sneaks.

Police note his ‘clear style of walking and running’, where he walks on his toes.

“As a result of the tireless investigation by our office in partnership with local law enforcement, this community can have peace of mind knowing that the individual charged today with the burglary of more than 1,000 cars in Bucks County is being held accountable,” says the Attorney General of Pennsylvania. Josh Shapiro said in a statement.

It is unclear whether Johnson has representation.
