A South San Francisco man was found guilty of car theft and burglary for stealing a van and a motorcycle in December 2020 and stealing catalytic converters and an exhaust pipe in 2021.
Cedric Anthony Sanders, 43, pleaded guilty to the two felonies Oct. 27 and had five prior car theft convictions, according to the San Mateo County District Attorney’s Office. He faces up to three years and eight months in state prison, with a sentencing date set for Dec. 6.
Sanders was stopped by Redwood City police officers on Dec. 25, 2020, when officers determined he was driving a Chevrolet van stolen three days earlier with a motorcycle that had been stolen several weeks earlier inside, the DA’s Office said.
On June 17, 2021, the police were called on Sanders after reports of him breaking and entering a Fair Oaks residential property garage with an unidentified woman, at which point used catalytic converters and an exhaust pipe were also found in his car, according to the DA’s Office.
