Sheriff’s deputies searching for Templeton burglary suspect

According to CalCoastNews, sheriff’s deputies are asking for our help tracking down a suspect who burglarized Upscale Resale on South Main Street in Templeton last week. The alarm went off on April 30, but by the time deputies arrived, the damage was already done. It’s a frustrating hit for a consignment shop that so many of us love to browse for treasures—and a reminder that even our quietest North County towns aren’t immune to this kind of thing.
What makes this sting a little more personal is that Upscale Resale isn’t just any store; it’s the kind of place where proceeds often support local causes, and where neighbors turn their gently used items into someone else’s find. If you saw anything suspicious around 590 S. Main that evening—or if you’ve noticed someone trying to sell items that seem out of place—now’s the time to speak up. A quick tip to the Sheriff’s Office could help get this resolved and keep Templeton the safe, close-knit community we all value.
