Just before 11:00am the owner of an unoccupied residence located in the south east side of Owen Sound attended his property to check on it. Upon pulling into the driveway the owner observed two unknown vehicles on his property. He also observed two males exiting his garage with stolen items. Police were immediately contacted and an officer arrived shortly after.

The first responding officer encountered the two male suspects, taking one of the males into custody without incident. The second male fled the property, running through a thick bush area. Through investigation the male who fled has been identified.

A 57 year old male from Meaford has been charged with Break Enter and Theft. He will appear in court in Owen Sound on September 12^th, 2019. An arrest warrant will be sought for the known second male who will be facing the same charges.

All the stolen property was recovered at the scene.
