Neighbor Being A Neighbor, Well Done!
via KCSO: NELSON TOWNSHIP, Mich: Yesterday, just before 9:00 AM a 68-year-old Cedar Springs man witnessed a man breaking into his neighbor’s outbuilding near Myers Lake Ave and 20 Mile Rd.
The Cedar Springs man happened to look outside and observed a man dressed in a hoodie sweatshirt, mask, and gloves walking towards his neighbor’s driveway. Our witness followed, heard loud noises, and observed broken glass near the garage’s service door. The neighbor confronted the suspect, who then ran into the woods.
KCSO searched the area for an extended period of time, with the help of Michigan State Police and MSP’s K9 Unit, but they were unable to locate the suspect.
Detectives remained in the area and observed the suspect emerge from the woods approximately one hour after the incident. He was arrested for attempting to break and enter. KCSO values our observant community members for calling us when they observe suspicious activity.
The case is expected to be reviewed by the Kent County Prosecutor’s Office.
