BURLINGTON, ON.  A 4:00 am break-in at a Dequincy Crescent home woke the residents who found themselves staring at a male intruder who said he was armed.  The resident later told police they did not actually see a weapon.

The intruder proceeded to search the house and took a quantity of cash, alcohol, jewellery and two  firearms: a 12 gauge shotgun and a .22 calibre rifle.  The male was last seen leaving the residence on foot.
