Backyard chase ended quickly
A quick response from Kingston Police led to the arrest of a 30-year-old break-and-enter suspect on January 17, 2025.
Police were called to a Nelson Street home around 10 p.m. after a reported break-in. Emergency Response and K9 units quickly set up a perimeter in the surrounding subdivision.

The accused faces charges including break and enter, theft under $5,000, possession of stolen property, and two counts of breaching probation.
They were transported to police headquarters and held for a bail hearing.
