PRINCE GEORGE — A break and enter is under investigation in Prince George.

RCMP say on the morning of Friday May 10, police received a report of a break and enter to an occupied residence on Tasa Place in the Hart.

“An adult female resident of the home found an unknown male inside her entranceway with her purse in his hands,” says Cpl. Craig Douglass.

“The female grabbed the purse and pushed the suspect out the front door. The initial call to police was made to the non-emergency line, slowing police response. No injuries have been reported and it appears nothing was taken. Patrols for the suspect were negative.”

The suspect is described as white, tall, with a thin build, short dirty blonde hair and wearing a royal blue golf shirt, black pants and a black lanyard with what appeared to be an ID tag.

Although this has yet to be confirmed, police are looking into the possibility that the suspect was posing as a door-to-door salesman. The investigation is continuing.
