Police in Tyler County have arrested a woman they say attempted to break into a home in Middlebourne.
Just after 5:00 a.m., Tuesday the Tyler County E-911 Center received a call that a female subject was trying to break in a house on Hardman Street in Middlebourne.
The owner of the residence was home at the time and was watching the suspect from a window in the house.
An officer with the Tyler County Sheriff’s Office found the individual matching the description a short distance from the scene burglarizing a vehicle that was parked along the street nearby.
