Unified police were called to Vista Elementary School at 4925 S. 2200 West around 6 a.m. An officer on patrol was already at the school and spotted a man wearing black clothes running behind the building.

The officer pursued him, but did not catch him.

Police said the man left behind computer parts and his shoes as he fled on foot.

Investigators found a broken window where they believe the burglar entered the school.
