A 48-year-old Sarnia man is facing attempted murder charges after a stalking case that began earlier this year escalated into a break-in last Saturday. Kyle George was first arrested in May for criminal harassment but kept trying to reach his victim even after a court ordered him to stay away, according to the Sarnia Police Service.

George was taken into custody again on June 13, 2026, when officers responded to a break-and-enter call at a home and found him inside. Police say he had ignored conditions set after his May 11 arrest that barred any contact with the person he was accused of harassing.

As investigators dug deeper, they uncovered online communications and seized items at the scene that led to additional charges, including attempted murder. George now also faces counts of break and enter, uttering threats, criminal harassment, harassing communications, and two counts of failing to comply with his release conditions.

The pattern of unwanted contact started earlier in the year and the victim’s identity is being protected. George has since had a bail hearing and been ordered to remain in custody while the court process plays out.

Police are asking anyone with information to contact the Sarnia Police Service at 519-344-8861 or to reach out anonymously to Crime Stoppers.
