A thief could soon be behind bars after New West police obtained surveillance footage of the man allegedly breaking in to a home earlier this week.
Police are asking for the public’s help identifying a suspect allegedly broke into a home in the 800 block of 14th Street around 11:30 a.m. on Oct. 6. The suspect is described as a Caucasian man, 20 to 30 years old with a thin face and build. He was seen in the surveillance images wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, grey pants and a baseball hat with a white logo on the front and red lettering on the back, according to a media release from police.
The incident was reported by neighbours nearby who heard an alarm sounding. The suspect has fled by the time police arrived, the release noted.
Anyone who may recognize the suspect or have information on the break-in is asked to contact Const. Dave Zemlak at 604-525-5411.
