The California home of Apple's late Steve Jobs has been broken into with more than $60,000 worth of computers and personal stolen.

The San Jose Mercury News reported that 35-year-old Kariem McFarlin has been arrested and charged with residential burglary and selling stolen property. He has been remanded in custody with bail set at $500,000 pending a 20 August hearing.

Santa Clara County prosecutor Tom Flattery won't say if the items taken from the home on 17 July belonged to Jobs or another family member.

The co-founder of Apple died last year at age 56.

The prosecutor says McFarlin was likely unaware of the home's significance.
