Aug 26, 2020 | 5:00 PM

A property thief did a poor job covering his tracks, and as a result had the opportunity to meet one of the newest four legged members of the Prince Albert Police Service (PAPS).

The 24-year-old man was arrested Tuesday night at a residence in the South Hill area.

According to a statement from police, officers were initially called to the 300 Block of 34th St. W. for a report of suspicious activity.

After observing nothing out of place at the complainant’s property, the officers then took a look at the neighbouring residence and noticed the garage light was on.
