Theft/Warrant Arrest
Right place; right time. An off-duty officer grocery shopping helped the store make an arrest in a shoplifting incident Wednesday evening.
At approximately 6:00pm on July 30, 2025, the off-duty officer was in the store in the Towerhill Road and Chemong Road area and became aware that store staff had stopped a man attempting to leave the store without paying for over $350 worth of items. The officer took the man into custody. During the investigation it was learned that the man was wanted on warrants for assault, assault with a weapon, failure to comply with undertaking and failure to attend court.
As a result, a 63-year-old Peterborough man was arrested on the strength of the warrants and further charged with:
- Theft under $5000
The accused is being held in custody and will appear in court today, July 31, 2025.
