Guildford break-in charges highlight the value of surveillance video: Surrey RCMP

Darpan News Desk Surrey RCMP, 29 Oct, 2020 07:08 PM
  • Guildford break-in charges highlight the value of surveillance video: Surrey RCMP

Charges have been laid in relation to a break and enter in Guildford, with thanks-in-part to surveillance video.

Shortly before 1:00 p.m. on October 1, 2020, Surrey RCMP responded to a report of a residential break and enter in the 14900-block of 99A Avenue. An unknown person had broken into the residence through the garage and stole personal electronics.

As part of their investigation, the Surrey RCMP frontline officer gathered valuable evidence including surveillance footage. The video played a significant role in helping officers identify a suspect.

On October 15, 2020, 25-year-old Jeffrey Seipp was arrested for the break and enter. At the time of his arrest he also had an outstanding arrest warrant for a previous break and enter that occurred in the fall of 2019.

The new charge of break and enter, related to the October 1 incident was laid on October 19, 2020.

This investigation highlights how valuable surveillance footage can be in an investigation, says Corporal Joanie Sidhu. Good quality video can have a significant impact on our ability to advance an investigation.
