An Oklahoma man’s suspected vehicle burglary spree came to an end after police spent hours reviewing surveillance footage and following investigative leads. What started as a series of car break-ins at a local town center eventually resulted in his arrest on numerous charges, with additional legal troubles waiting for him in another county.

According to the Mustang Police Department, officers investigated multiple vehicle burglaries at the Mustang Town Center between September 16 and October 5, 2026. Investigators eventually identified 26-year-old Anthony Josiah Billie, a Yukon resident, as a suspect connected to the incidents.

The department said its officers spent hours examining footage and pursuing leads before making the arrest. On October 12, Billie was taken into custody and booked into the Canadian County Jail in connection with the burglaries.

Police initially announced that Billie faced 20 counts of third-degree burglary involving vehicles at the town center, along with charges involving firearm possession and stolen property. His jail booking record also lists multiple firearm and stolen property offenses, suggesting that his legal problems extend beyond the vehicle burglaries themselves.

The Mustang Police Department said the vehicle burglaries occurred across several dates between September 16 and October 5. Rather than identifying a suspect immediately, investigators spent hours reviewing available footage and following leads to determine who might be responsible.

Their investigation eventually led them to Billie, whom authorities connected to the incidents at the Mustang Town Center parking lots. Police did not specify how many individual vehicles were targeted or what property was taken during the suspected burglaries.

On October 12, officers arrested Billie and transported him to the Canadian County Jail, where they booked him at about 1:04 p.m. The department announced 20 counts of third-degree burglary, although the provided inmate record separately lists 19 entries under that charge.

Jail Records Reveal Additional Firearm and Stolen Property Charges

According to the provided Canadian County inmate record, Billie also faces two listed counts of carrying or possessing a firearm as a convicted felon. The record includes another two counts of receiving, possessing, or concealing stolen property, bringing the total number of listed charge entries to 23.

The Mustang Police Department separately confirmed that Billie was being held on firearm and stolen property charges in addition to the vehicle burglary allegations. Authorities also indicated that he faces multiple charges connected to thefts in Oklahoma County, although the department did not provide further details about those incidents.

Following the arrest, Mustang police encouraged residents to lock their vehicles, keep valuables out of sight, and report suspicious activity to law enforcement. Billie remains the subject of the criminal allegations outlined in the department’s announcement and jail records, and the investigation shows how several weeks of reported vehicle burglaries led to an arrest on numerous charges.
