One person has been arrested after he was allegedly caught breaking into a property in Onehunga overnight.
Early this morning, at around 2.15am, Police were called after a man was seen on CCTV entering a commercial premises on Alfred St.
Auckland City East Prevention Manager, Inspector Rachel Dolheguy, says the Police Eagle helicopter was deployed to the address and located a man inside a vehicle at the address.
“Eagle were able to advise units on the ground of the males location and he was subsequently arrested within minutes,” she says.
“Police understand incidents like this are concerning for the community, and hope this quick arrest provides some reassurance.”
A 36-year-old man has been charged with burglary and will appear in Auckland District Court next week.
