The off duty officer and his friend approached the couple, and blocked their vehicle to prevent them from leaving while other officers arrived.
They arrested 34 year-old Joshua Saunders and 20 year old Samantha Vanness both from Ottawa. Both face charges including tresspassing and possession of break in instruments.
Several tools were seized as a result. Both will be standing before a judge soon.
