A Southern Ontario police force has issued a warning to the public after officers retrieved a camouflaged trail camera last week that appeared to be used for the surveillance of nearby homes.
Officers from the Halton Regional Police Service responded to a call in a neighbourhood of Milton on April 16 after a homeowner found a trail camera and battery pack wrapped in camouflage tape concealed in some shrubs.
