A 41-year old Port Colborne man has been arrested in connection to some residential break and enters in Wainfleet.

About two hours later they were notified of a suspicious person in the Highway 3 and Rathfon Road area, charging an e-bike.
Police found he had the stolen items, and was charging the e-bike as the battery died while he was trying to flee.

- Break and Enter (3 Counts)
- Possession of Stolen Property Under $5,000 (2 counts)

He had a bail hearing in Hamilton yesterday.
