Deputies said the victim reported her vehicle window was smashed with concrete while it was parked at the Wekiva Island boathouse on June 3.
Surveillance video showed Mcbreen-Fasano asking for a cigarette at Wekiva Island's bar and sitting at a picnic table. Mcbreen-Fasano was seen holding a rock and covering his face as he headed for the parking lot, according to deputies.
Deputies posted a picture on social media from the surveillance video and immediately began receiving a large number of tips identifying Mcbreen-Fasano as the person in the photo.
According to the report, investigators checked Mcbreen-Fasano's Facebook page to conduct a photo comparison and found he posted a photo of himself earlier that day wearing the same T-shirt that he was wearing when he committed the burglary.
Mcbreen-Fasano was arrested on Friday and booked into the Juvenile Detention Center.
