A Winnipeg homeowner says he's glad that police have arrested two men accused of stealing his snowblower in broad daylight — a theft that he had videotaped and posted on YouTube.

Rodney Fritz's outdoor cameras recorded two men taking the snowblower from the yard of his Island Lakes home on Nov. 15 at around 4:30 p.m.

The video footage of the theft, which Fritz uploaded to YouTube, shows the men driving onto his driveway, loading the snowblower onto the back of a red truck and driving away.

Fritz told CBC News on Thursday that police told him one man was arrested on Dec. 10, while the other was arrested five days later.

However, he said the officers could not recover his snowblower. He suspects it has been sold already.

Still, Fritz said he's just glad arrests have been made in the case.
