At around 6:30 a.m. on Sunday, December 18, a man entered a home, at Heritage Way in the area of Third Line and Upper Middle Road West, through an unlocked front door.
The resident, startled by the intruder, left the home to dial 9-1-1.
Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) officers arrived on scene to find the resident outside the home, but the intruder, however, was still inside. He was promptly arrested.
The 32-year-old male suspect, from Toronto, has been charged with Breaking and Entering.
Nothing was stolen from the home.
