Calgary police have issued a public appeal for help in identifying a man suspected of involvement in a residential break-in that took place last month.
Details of the Northwest Calgary Incident
The incident under investigation occurred on December 4, 2025, at a property located in the city's northwest quadrant. Authorities have released a photograph of the individual they believe can assist with their inquiries, hoping that someone in the community will recognize him.
While specific details about what was taken or the exact nature of the break-in were not immediately disclosed in the initial release, the police service emphasized the importance of public cooperation in solving the case.

How the Public Can Assist Investigators
Law enforcement officials are urging anyone with information about the individual in the photo or the December 4th incident to come forward. This appeal is a standard part of many investigations where leads have been exhausted, and community input becomes crucial.
Members of the public who may have seen something suspicious in the area on that date or who recognize the man are asked to contact the Calgary Police Service non-emergency line or Crime Stoppers anonymously. Even small pieces of information can sometimes provide the missing link needed to progress an investigation.
Broader Context of Property Crime
This appeal comes as police services across Canada continue to combat property crimes. While the Calgary Police Service's year-end statistics for 2025 were not detailed in this specific release, such public appeals are a common tool used to generate new leads.
The success of these investigations often hinges on timely tips from vigilant residents. Police remind citizens to always report suspicious activity in their neighbourhoods and to secure their homes adequately.
No further details about potential charges or other suspects were provided at the time of the appeal, which was formally made on January 2, 2026.
