PETERBOROUGH-Peterborough County OPP officers were called to a North Kawartha address to investigate a Break and Enter which resulted in one person being charged.
On Saturday March 15, the complainant advised that the residence belonged to a family member who has since passed away and is currently unoccupied. The caller stated that as the property was currently vacant, cameras had been installed for security purposes.
