Via Minneapolis Crime Alerts:
On the 1000 block of Mount Curve Ave this morning at 3:44 am, a man entered a resident’s home and spent time inside without permission while the victims were asleep. There was no forced entry and no reported loss at this time. The victim confronted the suspect and called 911, at which point the suspect left. The victims were unharmed.
An arrest was made immediately by officers who were patrolling the neighborhood. The man, Terrence Anthony Berglund (date of birth: 4/21/1967), was apprehended and positively ID’d by the victim as the man who had entered their home. Terrence Berglund was arrested for PC burglary of dwelling and booked in Hennepin County Jail.
The victim was able to give a unique description of the suspect, which helped responding officers quickly locate the offender.
What You Can Do:
- Lock all windows and doors, even when you are home or asleep
- Pin windows that you want to have open; it’s recommended to secure them so they can’t open higher than 6”. See information for pinning windows under Home Security Information at http://www.ci.minneapolis.mn.
