The Juvenile Court of Chatham County adjudicated 17-year-old M. W. delinquent based upon an act that would have constituted the crime of burglary if committed by an adult. M. W. appeals, contending that the evidence was insufficient to support an adjudication of delinquency. We disagree and affirm. “In considering a challenge to the sufficiency of the evidence supporting an adjudication of delinquency, we construe the evidence and every inference from the evidence in favor of the juvenile court’s adjudication to determine if a reasonable finder of fact could have found, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the juvenile committed the acts charged.” Citation and punctuation omitted. In the Interest of B. R. , 289 Ga. App. 6 656 SE2d 172 2007. This court does not “resolve conflicts in the evidence or determine the credibility of the witnesses. Those issues are for the juvenile court to decide.” Citation and punctuation omitted. Id.
Viewed in the light most favorable to the adjudication, the evidence shows that on October 31, 2007, at about 7:30 in the evening, the victim received a phone call from a neighbor. The neighbor told the victim, “They’re breaking in your house.” When the victim arrived home at about 9:00 p.m., the police were dusting for fingerprints. An air conditioner had been removed from a window creating an opening, and the victim’s home had been ransacked and several items stolen, including a safe that contained two firearms, pictures, jewelry, cash, checkbooks, a savings bond, a video player, and video games. Soon after, the victim’s son, C. C., arrived home. An unidentified person told the victim who had burglarized her home, and around midnight the same night, she went to the nearby home of one of C. C.’s acquaintances, A. B., and asked to speak with his mother. The victim demanded that the stolen items be returned to her. The victim then heard what she believed was a gunshot. A. B.’s mother insisted that none of the stolen items were in her home and invited the victim and C. C. to take a look around the house. C. C. walked through the home and discovered one of the stolen guns in a closet. C. C. also discovered one of his mother’s rings on a dresser in A. B.’s home. The victim called police back to her home and told an officer what she and her son had discovered.
