The police arrested a man in the night from Monday to Tuesday, because he was sleeping in the garden of a house. There he tried to break into the shed of a house on Schaepmanlaan in Bergen op Zoom. The 38-year-old man has been arrested.
The police received a report around 4 a.m. that a strange man had been seen in someone’s garden. Officers immediately went there, but saw no one.
A while later, a resident called that the man had been seen again. Officers climbed a barn to look for the man, and saw a sleeping man in a garden. They woke him up, after which the man immediately fled. The man climbed over a fence, but was eventually arrested. He is still in custody pending further investigation.
