A Greenfield man convicted of several residential burglaries was sentenced to four years in state prison, the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office said Friday.

Omar Onofre, 22, was convicted of three felony counts of residential burglary and one misdemeanor count of criminal invasion of privacy.

The burglary convictions constitute three “strikes” under California’s Three Strikes Law, prosecutors said.

Between March 3 and March 12 of this year, Onofre committed a series of residential burglaries in the city of Greenfield by entering multiple residences during the night and early morning hours. Onofre entered the residences with the intent to steal personal property, including wallets and cellphones, according to the DA’s Office.

Onofre was arrested and confessed to Greenfield Police detectives that he had committed the burglaries. During the investigation, law enforcement also located several items that had been reported stolen from the victims at Onofre’s residence.
