An Uber driver has been arrested after he allegedly tried to break into the home of a customer within an hour of dropping them off at the airport.
Jackie Gordon Wilson was seen returning to the house in San Mateo, California, not long after he had given the owner a lift to San Francisco Airport last Thursday.
The 38-year-old was seen loitering outside in footage recorded by a Ring security system, apparently weighing up how he might be able to get inside.
He left the area upon hearing an alarm, but is said to have instead targeted a different property just a few blocks away and stolen multiple items.
The burglary victims, known as Scott and Chana, who were staying at an Airbnb at the time, told San Francisco news station KGO-TV that the whole house had been "torn apart".

Among the belongings stolen were family heirlooms dating back to the Second World War, and the safe had also been opened and looted.
Police were able to make the arrest after the footage of Wilson was uploaded to the Neighbours phone app, designed to allow Ring users to help each other to keep their communities safe.
