Kingston Police have released the above images and are asking for the public’s assistance to identify a suspicious male who entered a north end backyard.

At approximately 8:53 a.m. on Tuesday, Jul. 6, 2021, a suspicious male was captured on video outside the residence of a house located in Kingston’s north end. According to a release from Kingston Police, the suspicious male had arrived in a red hatchback and parked in the homeowner’s driveway shortly after they had left their residence and property.
