A second suspect is wanted in connection to a commercial break-and-enter investigation.

On Sept. 23, Windsor police responded to the incident at a business in the 3100 block of Howard Avenue.

Both suspects were identified. A 50-year-old woman was arrested in the 100 block of Division Road in Kingsville. She has been charged with break-and-enter, possession of break-and-enter tools, possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000 and failure to comply with a probation order.

An arrest warrant has been issued by Windsor police for 41-year-old Michael Bernard, who is at large.

He is wanted for two counts of break-and-enter charges, two counts of possession of break-and-enter tools, two counts of operation of a vehicle while prohibited and two counts of failure to comply with a release order.

Bernard is described as a white 5 feet 8 inches tall man with a medium build, brown hair and brown eyes.
