LOS ANGELES (AP) Police on Monday arrested a couple on suspicion of burglarizing the home of Nicolas Cage's former girlfriend a case that turned bizarre when the man disappeared for three days and left behind his dog and a bloody leash.
Darwin Vela, 22, and his fiancee, Kelly McLaren, 24, were arrested in neighboring Inglewood by Los Angeles police detectives and remained jailed on $20,000 bail each.
There was no answer Monday evening at a phone number for McLaren. Police didn't know whether she or Vela had obtained attorneys.
The couple are suspected of involvement in an August burglary at the home of former Cage girlfriend Christina Fulton. A computer and other items were stolen.
Ricardo Orozco, a two-time convicted felon, has been charged with the burglary and receiving stolen property. Investigators believe that the couple were in the getaway car during the theft, Lt. Bill Melendez said.
