Victoria police say a prolific offender who recently arrived in the city was arrested again early Monday morning following a break-in at a residential building.
Police say they were called to the building along Saghalie Road in Vic West around 5:15 a.m. after building security reported a break and enter.
A police service dog was called to help find the suspect, and as officers were searching for the man, he allegedly pulled the building's fire alarm, which brought firefighters to the area. "The suspect, who is a relatively new arrival to Victoria, has had 44 police contacts and a dozen arrests so far this year," said VicPD in a release Monday.
