Police in B.C.’s Southern Interior say a Greenwood man was arrested on Wednesday after an alleged break-and-enter in Osoyoos.
According to police, Osoyoos RCMP were notified of a morning break-and-enter at a home under construction in the Eagle Point area.
“A witness was able to provide officers with a description of the suspect and the vehicle used, which resulted in officers confirming their identity,” RCMP said.
That information led Midway RCMP to a property in Greenwood where the suspect was believed to be.
