Man wanted in Quebec, N.B. was arrested for Kitchener home break-in

A sliver of closure for a Kitchener homeowner, a month after their home was broken into.

Waterloo regional police said they have made an arrest in a case dating back to Aug. 25. On that day, a man allegedly broke into a home in Kitchener’s Stanley Park neighbourhood and stole cash and jewellery.

The home involved was near Lyndhurst Drive and Burbank Road, right by a conservation area. This past Thursday, a man was arrested in Toronto in connection with the case.

“WRPS’ Break, Enter, and Vehicle Theft Team (BEVT) began an investigation, and, with assistance from an eyewitness, subsequently identified the suspect,” reads a release from police.

“On October 2, 2025, BEVT members, with assistance from Central and North Division Direct Action Response Team officers, conducted a search warrant at a residence in Toronto and arrested the suspect.”

Regional police said it’s not just this case; the man was wanted in connection with. Police services across Ontario, in Quebec and in New Brunswick had already been looking for him.

The 43-year-old was wanted on seven separate arrest warrants in all for similar offences.

He has since been charged.

The investigation is ongoing.
