Kentish Gazette Canterbury & District
Man bailed over OAP burglary
Police have arrested and charged a suspect after a pensioner told how she grappled with a burglar in her own home.
The Gazette reported last week how 72-year-old Margaret Allen (pictured) found an intruder in her house in Albert Road, Canterbury, on October 1.
CCTV showed a man fleeing the property.
Police subsequently arrested 29-year-old Jurijus Kuznecovas, of Spring Lane, Canterbury.
He was charged with burglary and has been bailed to appear before Margate magistrates on November 3.
