Man arrested for Stealing Polaris

Just before 8 a.m. on 12/31/23, deputies responded to a burglary on the 10700 block of Road 248 in Terra Bella. A barn had been broken into overnight and a newer Polaris quad had been stolen valued at $8,000. Deputies followed the tracks left from the quad through fields and roadways to a residence more than two miles away in the 23700 block of Avenue 96 in Terra Bella. Deputies saw the stolen Polaris and a subject nearby. He was detained and the key to the quad was in his possession. The suspect, 33-year-old Nicholas Robinson, was arrested for burglary. He also had two active warrants with a combined bail of $125,000 and he was out on bail for an unrelated offense.
