Guelph police are looking for a woman after someone broke into a house and made herself at home Thursday.

Approximately 4:20 p.m. a homeowner in the Exhibition Park area called to report a break and enter after returning home and finding the front door open. Surveillance video showed a female attempting to open the back door just after 8 a.m. before gaining access through the front door.

Officers recognized the woman from the surveillance video. A 43-year-old Guelph woman is wanted for break and enter.
