A thief was caught hiding inside a Vernon business early Saturday morning.
Vernon North Okanagan RCMP arrived on scene at an unfolding break and enter at 4:30 a.m. in the 4300 block of 25th Avenue.
Officers were given live updates from RCMP 911 dispatchers while the owner of the business was monitoring his security system remotely at the time of the break and enter.
Police surrounded the building and found a 24-year-old man hiding inside a fenced area at the rear of the business, who was taken into custody without incident.
"Having a good quality security system installed at your business or home can pay off and did so in this particular incident," said Const. Kelly Brett. "With live updates being provided by the business owner, the responding officers were able to tailor their response appropriately and execute an arrest safely and efficiently."
The Vernon man remains in custody and is scheduled to appear in court today to face possible charges of break and enter and possession of break in instruments.
