Police are investigating following a break-in at a home this week while the owner slept.

Officers responded to a home near London Road East and Dufferin Street on Tuesday. The owner said she’d gone to bed at about midnight and when she woke up Tuesday morning the front door was ajar and some property was missing.

She checked dumpsters behind nearby businesses and was able to recover some of her property, police said in a news release, but is still missing a laptop, cash and identification.
