Startled occupants of an Upper Prince Street residence were awakened this morning as Charlottetown City Police arrested a man caught in the process of breaking into their home.

The incident happened at approximately 6:50 a.m. this morning when the Charlottetown Police Services Street Crime Unit arrested a 29-year-old Charlottetown man and his 21 year-old accomplice.

The occupants of the residence, who were asleep at the time, were awakened by police during the arrest in their home.

Investigators say the older suspect cut a window screen to gain entrance to the dwelling while his accomplice acted as a lookout nearby.

The two males were lodged at the Correctional Centre and will be brought before a Justice of the Peace later today.

That is good news. Personally, I was broken into last month and a laptop stolen. I was lucky enough that the thief dropped "her" wallet and my laptop was recovered. She got 2 yrs. She had climbed up the fire escape to the roof and got in through the second floor open window. This will be my tenth break in 18 years ( I believe) I have deadbolts everywhere now, but know that they will return for something...license plate or something.. It is always good news to hear thieves caught. Victims endure enough.
