Investigation into these offences resulted in identification of a suspect and linking the offences to the same (likely) suspect. Warrants were obtained for the arrest of this individual and his identity and photo made public; however, it was the astute observation of an officer that led to the arrest of the suspect. On August 13, 2020, at approximately 9:14 p.m., a Regina Police Service member saw the suspect, riding a bicycle, approaching a multi-unit residence in the 3600 block of East Haughton Road. A perimeter was set up and when the suspect emerged from the building parkade, on a different bicycle, police officers, including Canine members, made the arrest without incident. A search, incident to arrest, led to discovery of break and enter tools in a backpack. Further investigation led to numerous charges.
Twenty-three year-old Zachary Walter Robert HAHN, of Regina, is charged with:
- 8 X Break & Enter and Commit Theft [348(1)(b) CC];
- 2 x Break & Enter With Intent [348(1)(a) CC];
- Attempt Break & Enter [348(1) (a) CC];
- 7 X Breach of Probation [733.1(1) CC];
- Theft under $5,000 [334(b) CC];
- Possession of B&E Tools [351(1) CC].
HAHN will make his first appearance on these charges for Provincial Court at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, August 14, 2020.
