Three reported attempted break-ins have sparked discussion about home security on social media, as residents share experiences and safety advice following incidents on Athabasca Street West and Stadacona Street West last week. BREAKING: This morning, the Moose Jaw Police Service posted on Facebook identifying the arrested suspect as Jesse Wenarchuk, 41. They also confirmed the reported details. The MJPS also stated: Although the MJPS appreciates the value of the public sharing information through social media, which may warn citizens about potential dangers, we encourage people posting to refrain from making assumptions surrounding the circumstances of the event. A Facebook post in the Moose Jaw Talks group detailed a frightening encounter where a resident reported an intruder attempting forced entry around 12:30 a.m., despite visible security cameras and vehicles indicating the home was occupied. According to the post, the suspect damaged surveillance cameras and broke through the first pane of glass in a door before police arrived. The resident described hiding with a child while their partner called 911. "I grabbed (my daughter) out of her crib, went to the very back of my closet, hiding in the dark praying to God that he doesn't get in," the post stated. Police reportedly arrived before the suspect could breach the second glass pane, and the individual fled before being caught after allegedly breaking into an elderly resident's home a couple of streets over. The post went on to claim that the suspect was released at 9 a.m. the following morning on charges of break and enter with intent, with a court date set for October 9th and conditions to stay away from the specific address. The homeowner was outraged by the news, saying it was not safe or reassuring, and noting that such conditions required giving the suspect their exact address if they didn't have it before.
