Peterborough police say a call from a concerned citizen reporting a break and enter in progress led to the arrest of a man on Thursday morning.

Peterborough Police Service says around 10:35 a.m., a neighbouring resident called to report an alleged break and enter in progress at a neighbouring O’Connell Road home.

Officers located a suspect who was allegedly crawling out of the window of a residence and onto the roof.
