A Fort Frances man will be back in court in the new year on a charge of break and enter.

The charge stems from an incident early Saturday morning on Victoria Avenue in Fort Frances.

Police found him wearing the jacket nearby.

The 29-year-old has since been released and is schedule to make a court appearance on January 15.
