A Surrey man is facing several charges after an ill-timed nap in Port Moody.
In the early morning of Jan. 27, according to police, a woman discovered a man sleeping in her car, which was parked outside of her PoMo house. She called police, who had to wake the man up when they arrived.
Louis John McIlvenna, 36, was arrested and charged with theft under $5,000, mischief and two counts of possession of stolen property. He was released with several conditions after appearing in B.C. Provincial Court in Port Coquitlam but was arrested and charged later that same day by Burnaby RCMP for breaching two of his conditions.
Port Moody Police say they're aware of several thefts from autos in the area and are continuing their investigation. They're also reminding residents to remove all items from their vehicles and to ensure garage door openers are also removed when parking at the end of the day.
