PARKSVILLE — Oceanside RCMP are looking for a man believed to be responsible for several late night crimes in Nanoose Bay, including a daring residential break-in and truck theft.

An Oceanside RCMP news release states three complaints were made of people waking up on Oct. 20 to being victimized in the Dolphin/Schooner Cove Drive area of Nanoose Bay.

Police say the calls ranged from theft from vehicle, trespassing and break and enter to a home resulting in the theft of a truck.

The final reported incident saw the suspect entered a truck and used the garage door opener to enter the home and steal truck keys and a wallet.

Oceanside Mounties state the suspect then used a credit card to fuel the truck at a gas station, leading to a pair of surveillance photos.
