A Guelph man was arrested Tuesday more than 18 months after his fingerprint linked him to a residential break and enter.
In August, 2020, a resident of Edinburgh Road South reported a break and enter to her room at a shared home. Cash, perfume and personal documents were reported stolen.
A fingerprint located in the complainant’s room was eventually matched to a former resident, who had no legal reason to have been in the room. The former resident was located downtown on Tuesday and arrested.
A 35-year-old Guelph man is charged with break, enter and theft. He appeared in a bail court and had the matter adjourned until April 6.
