MARYSVILLE – Police responded before noon Thursday to a silent alarm at a house on the eastside of Marysville. There, officers found a burglary in progress.

A male driver was sitting in a truck parked in the driveway and another male coming out of the house blurted out, “I just needed the money,” when he saw the police officers, Cmdr. Robb Lamoureux said.

Police found a flat-screen television, a laptop computer and iPods stacked near the front door ready to be loaded into the truck, he said.

Two Marysville brothers were booked for residential burglary. The adult brother was booked into the Snohomish County Jail, and the younger, a juvenile, into the Denney Juvenile Justice Center.
