A family woke up to someone trying to break into their home early in the morning in Kamloops on Monday.
Kamloops RCMP were called to the 1200-block of Kimberly Crescent just before 3:40 a.m. on Feb. 3, according to a press release from police.
During the 911 call a man and a woman could be heard yelling for help.
When police arrived on scene they found a man inside a fenced yard trying to get through the window of an entry door.
“A physical struggle was observed between the homeowners and the man, and police officers were able to pull him away and secure him,” Cpl. Crystal Evelyn said in the release.
Kevin Edward Young, 36, was arrested and held for a bail hearing. He has been charged with break and enter into a dwelling, mischief, and failure to comply with a court order.
He has been remanded into custody and his next court date is today, Feb. 5.
