The suspect arrested by the Denver Police Department on Sept. 19 will stand trial for more than a dozen burglaries involving DU students in the last year.

The Denver District Attorney’s office charged Tarius Simes, 33, on Sept. 29, with 13 counts of second-degree burglary, criminal conspiracy and theft by receiving.

Simes was arrested near the High Street and Wesley Avenue intersection.

The burglaries often occurred in the homes of women at night, when the women were alone. According to prosecutors, laptop computers, iPods and other electronic devices were missing.

Simes was arrested after a three-hour, on-foot chase two days after a DU student awoke to find a man in her bedroom, stating he had a gun. He ordered her to put her head under a pillow or he would shoot her.

Simes has since remained in the Denver County Jail on $500,000 bail. 

The preliminary disposition hearing is set for Oct. 21.
