A man who allegedly broke into a couple’s home in Dauphin was arrested on Thursday morning.
Dauphin RCMP responded to a report of a break and enter in progress at a home on Fifth Avenue NW at around 5:15 a.m.
A couple inside the home woke up and noticed that some of their items had been moved and heard sounds coming from their basement, prompting them to call the police before leaving the home, RCMP said in a news release.
Mounties saw a man leaving the home and told him he was under arrest, the release said.
Police said the man, who appeared to be intoxicated, ran from the officers, and when he was caught, resisted arrest and assaulted one of the Mounties.
There was a “brief physical altercation” before the suspect was taken into custody, police said.
The officer sustained a minor injury.
Jacob Vermeylen, 21, of Dauphin was charged with breaking and entering, resisting arrest and assaulting a police officer.
