Police believe one suspect responsible for two overnight break-ins

Waterloo Regional Police are trying to identify a suspect who is believed to be responsible for two overnight break-ins.

They both happened in Waterloo on the evening of Feb. 28 and saw a suspect smash front glass doors to commercial businesses to gain entry.

The suspect then targeted cash, computers, and small electronics.

One of the break and enters happened in the Eastbridge Boulevard and Bridge Street area, while the other occurred near Erb Street West and Fischer-Hallman Road North.

Both businesses were closed at the time of the break-ins and no one was hurt.

The suspect in both cases is described as being a male with tanned skin, a medium to heavy build, and had his face-covered and was holding a duffel bag.

Police believe the suspect may have also been involved in an incident in Cambridge but no further details on that incident were immediately available, except it relates to an ongoing investigation.

The service noted the suspect likely has access to a vehicle and released surveillance video with hopes of identifying him.

Anyone with information on the break-ins is asked contact Waterloo Regional Police or Crime Stoppers.
