Two Chico residents have been arrested in connection with the recent burglary at the historic Stansbury Home, according to a news release issued by the Chico Police Department late Thursday.

Police said Sylvia Satara McDaniel, 33, and Brian Dean Martin, 29, were arrested on suspicion of burglary and suspicion of other crimes.

Located at 307 W. Fifth St., the Stansbury Home, which was built in 1883, was reported burglarized Feb. 22. Thousands of dollars of antique items were stolen and the property was vandalized, police said. Dino Corbin, president of the Stansbury Home Preservation Association, described the items taken as “irreplaceable.”

However, some of those items have now been recovered, police said. According to the news release, during a search of Martin’s residence on the 1700 block of Vista Verde Avenue, officers and detectives located and recovered some stolen items from the Stansbury Home.

Police had an arrest warrant for Martin following an incident on March 6 when he allegedly fled from Chico police during a traffic stop.

Martin was arrested for being a felon in possession of ammunition as well as suspicion of burglary and vandalism. McDaniel was arrested on suspicion of burglary and vandalism.
