New Westminster police are hoping the public can lend a hand identifying the suspect in a break-and-enter last month.

The theft happened in the 500 block of Royal Avenue on Oct. 14 around 2 p.m. Police believe the lone suspect entered a ground-floor apartment by prying open the sliding door. None of the residents were home at the time. The suspect, who was caught on a security camera inside the unit, stole several items before fleeing, according to a media release.
