Vernon Thief Nabbed

A Vernon thief is heading back to jail.

The man was arrested this morning after breaking into a home in the 400 block of 15th Crescent. The owner was home at the time.

The suspect fled on foot through some neighbourhood back yards and gave police the 'slip' until some employees at a nearby supply business managed to grab him.

The suspect had two outstanding warrants for his arrest for breach of probation and is due in court this afternoon.

His name has not been released.
