Calgary police have charged a man with break and enter after they allege he tunnelled into his upstairs neighbour’s apartment.

Police say they responded to reports of a break and enter in the 6400 block of Coach Hill Road Southwest on Sept. 5 when a woman returned home and found a large hole in the floor despite her door being locked. Investigators believe the man living in the unit directly below had tunnelled the hole from his suite into the one above using an open space behind a fireplace.

The victim said she had been experiencing ongoing issues with the neighbour leading up to the incident.

Investigators arrested and charged the man with one count of break and enter with intent to commit criminal harassment, mischief to property over $5,000 and two counts of disobeying a court order
