Authorities arrest a 39-year-old Redwood City man who was taken into custody over the weekend after he allegedly violated a restraining order, stole a woman's cell phone and then tried to break into her bedroom.
Around 11 p.m. Saturday, authorities were called after the suspect showed up at a home in the 200 block of First Avenue in North Fair Oaks, according to the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office.
