The following excerpt is from People v. Sorto, F063821 (Cal. App. 2013):
There was also sufficient evidence to support a jury finding of intent to commit theft. Unlawful entry, flight from the scene, and failure to provide a plausible reason for being on the premises are sufficient evidence of intent to commit theft to support a conviction of burglary. (People v. Martin, supra, 275 Cal.App.2d at p. 339.)
