SALT LAKE CITY — A man suspected of being a serial burglar, who prosecutors say has an "extensive" criminal history, now faces multiple criminal charges.

In total, Munson is charged with 13 counts of burglary and three counts of theft, all third-degree felonies, in addition to various counts of criminal mischief and trespassing. Court records currently link him to 14 different cases.

Since November, Munson is accused of breaking into places such as: Red Iguana 2, 866 W. South Temple; Abravanel Hall, 123 W. South Temple; the Masonic Temple, 650 E. South Temple; the Gospel Grace Church, 662 E. 1300 South; Nate Wade Subaru, 1207 S. Main; and OC Tanner, 1865 S. Main.
