PARKSVILLE — An alleged burglar was caught just after the act by Oceanside RCMP.
A release from the detachment said the 24-year-old Qualicum Beach man was arrested in the backyard of a house after allegedly attempting to rob his second house of the night on June 27.
Officers found the screen was removed from a window at the house the suspect was found. Surveillance video also showed him trying to break in.
Oceanside RCMP were first alerted to the thief when they received a complaint of a break-and-enter in progress on Magnolia Dr. around 3 a.m.
