OKLAHOMA CITY – A burglary suspect was arrested after deputies were able to identify him on Facebook.

On August 14, Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office deputies said a suspect forced his way into a garage of a home in the 21000 block of Villagio Drive in Deer Creek. The suspect stole items from the victim's truck and also stole another vehicle with a handgun inside from a nearby neighborhood to get away.

The victim and a neighbor both were able to capture video of the suspect from their home surveillance systems.

Deputies found a truck parked in a suspicious manner nearby after the robbery, ran the license plate number, and were able to determine who the owner of the truck was.

Deputies asked the victim if they knew who the owner of the suspicious truck was and the victim looked up the name on Facebook and found the owner of the truck had a boyfriend who resembled the suspect.

OCSO investigators identified Daniel Edward Fair from the surveillance video and Facebook. The 27-year-old surrendered at the Oklahoma County Sheriff's Office and was booked into jail on complaints of burglary in the first degree and larceny of an automobile.

The stolen vehicle was recovered through On Star and the handgun was also recovered.
