Home on the market allegedly broken into

Two people face charges in an alleged break and enter of a home listed for sale.

Sarnia police were called shortly after 10 p.m. on  Wednesday, July 9 to a residence in the area of Brock Street North.

The Community Response Division attended and located a man who left the scene on foot and a woman inside the home.

During a search, officers allegedly found two stolen debit cards, one gram of fentanyl and two grams crystal methamphetamine.
