UPDATE: Christmas Day B&E suspect turns himself in to Nanaimo RCMP
NANAIMO — After intense social media scrutiny, the young man suspected in a Christmas Day B&E turned himself in to police.
Nanaimo RCMP confirmed 20-year-old Justin Redmond Feusse surrended to police on Thursday, hours after a warrant was issued for his arrest.
He faced two charges of break and enter and theft for both allegedly stealing gifts and stockings from a Stonewater Dr. home while the family was asleep upstairs as well as a break and enter in January 2017.
RCMP Cst. Gary O’Brien said police made the Christmas Day robbery “priority number one over the holidays” which quickly led them to Feusse.
