 Arrest Made in October Commercial Burglary at Pho Saigon Restaurant
 
Morgan Hill, CA – On October 6, 2025, at approximately 10:20 a.m., Morgan Hill Police Officers responded to a report of a commercial burglary at Pho Saigon Restaurant. The burglary occurred several hours earlier.
 
The investigation revealed that at approximately 1:01 a.m., an unidentified suspect shattered the restaurant’s front door and was likely waiting nearby to see if an alarm had been triggered or if police would respond. The suspect later returned to the business, forced open the cash register drawer, and stole approximately $326 before fleeing the scene. The burglary was discovered and reported to police later that morning.
 
On December 1, 2025, a local business owner contacted the Morgan Hill Police Department after observing a subject checking doors and windows on live surveillance video from their business. When officers arrived, they determined the suspect had already fled. Officers circulated the area, contacted, and detained Antonio Maciel, a 51-year-old man from Morgan Hill, near San Pedro Avenue.
 
Upon contacting Maciel, officers immediately recognized him as the suspect in the October 6 burglary at Pho Saigon based on surveillance video from the original investigation. During the subsequent investigation, Maciel implicated himself as the suspect in the restaurant burglary.
Maciel was arrested and booked into the Santa Clara County Jail for the October 6 commercial burglary and the December 1 prowling incident.
 
“This case highlights the value of strong partnerships with our local business community,” said Chief Shane Palsgrove. “Because business owners acted quickly and officers responded proactively, we were able to identify and arrest a suspect responsible for multiple crimes in our city. We remain committed to protecting our businesses and maintaining Morgan Hill’s sense of safety.”
