A 31-year-old Belleville man is facing charges following a break and enter investigation in the city’s downtown core.
On February 19th at approximately 9:58 a.m., Belleville Police responded to a report of a break and enter at a local business. An employee arriving for work observed an unknown male leaving the premises.
Police later confirmed that the business had been forcibly entered, with damage noted to the door.
Officers reviewed surveillance footage and were able to identify a suspect. During the investigation, it was also learned that the individual was bound by conditions to keep the peace and be of good behaviour.
Later the same day, officers responded to a separate disturbance at another business. Upon arrival, police located the male, who was identified as the suspect from the earlier break and enter.
As a result of the investigation, a 31-year-old Belleville man of no fixed address was arrested and charged with break and enter, as well as fail to comply with a probation order.
The accused was held for a bail hearing and no names have been released by police at this time.
Police continue to remind business owners to ensure doors and security systems are properly secured, and to report any suspicious activity promptly.
