13-Year-Old Believed to be Home Intruder

(ABC 6 NEWS) -- Police in Austin say a 13-year-old boy is likely the person two people found inside their homes Tuesday.

Both cases happened in Northwest Austin. A woman found the boy the first time, and later that night, a man found him inside his home. The teen took off in both instances.

Based on a description form the homeowners, police say it was the same boy. He was apprehended near Austin High School Wednesday.

Authorities say the investigation continues.
