Police said the call was made shortly before 2am on Wednesday, when a member of the public reported an unknown person acting suspiciously in the yard of a neighbouring residence.
Officers went to the area immediately and found the 35-year-old in the yard of a house. During a search of his bag, police found various tools believed to be burglary equipment. The man was unable to provide satisfactory explanations for having them in his possession.
He was arrested for offences committed in the act, including unlawful entry onto property and possession of burglary tools during the night.
The suspect is expected to appear before court later on Wednesday for the immediate registration and hearing of the case.
Limassol CID is continuing investigations.
