Calgary police have released surveillance footage of an Aspen Woods break-in last month that happened in broad daylight while a mother and her two children were at home.
Officers were called to 0 to 100 block of Aspen Ridge Close S.W. at around 4:20 p.m. on Tuesday, April 4.
Police said the mother was in her upstairs bedroom with her kids when she heard a noise. As she left her bedroom to investigate, she discovered a man walking up the stairs.
After spotting the intruder, she ran back to her bedroom, locked the door and called 911.
The suspects left the home before police arrived.
In CCTV footage released by police on Tuesday, a silver Dodge Avenger can be seen backing into the driveway of the home. A female in jeans, a baggy zip-up sweatshirt and a baseball cap then walks up to the door and knocks. After waiting approximately 30 seconds with no answer, she walks back to the vehicle.

According to police, the men were able to get inside the house and take a winter coat and two sets of keys – one for the house and another for a vehicle. They left the house less than a minute later.
