RCMP in Inverness and Antigonish County has charged a Mulgrave man in relation to two break and enters in the community.
On June 23, at approximately 7:40 p.m., Antigonish County District RCMP received a report of a break and enter in progress at a home on Old Mulgrave Rd. Officers learned the homeowner observed a man and a woman exiting the residence, which was not occupied at the time. The homeowner verbally confronted the two before they fled on foot into a wooded area.
The man was wearing a jacket with “Harley Davidson” written on it and jeans. He was carrying two backpacks and another small bag.
The woman was wearing a white coat, dark pants, white socks, and sandals.
While on route to the home, a responding officer observed a woman matching the description. The officer detained the woman in relation to the break and enter. As the investigation progressed, the officer determined the woman was a suspect in a stolen vehicle investigation that began earlier in the day. The officer then safely arrested the woman, 36-year-old Tanya Marie Young, in relation to the earlier incident for which she has since been charged, https://rcmp.ca/en/nova-scotia/news/2026/07/4354632.

On June 16, Inverness County District RCMP began an investigation after receiving a report that people may be staying in a vacant home on Spring St. without knowledge of the homeowner. Through the investigation, officers seized evidence of at least one person staying in the home.
On June 25, investigators charged MacLean and Young with Breaking and Entering with Intent in relation to the June 23 incident. MacLean has also been charged with Fail to Comply with Order (two counts).
On July 6, investigators charged MacLean with Breaking and Entering with Intent and Possession of Property Obtained by Crime in relation to the June 16 incident.
