After a two week investigation, South Simcoe Police Service officers have charged a 27-year-old Bolton man in connection with a recent break and enter in Bradford.

On Thursday, July 4, 2019 around 9 a.m., police were dispatched to a new housing development after a quantity of items including tools were stolen during a break in at the site. As a result of an investigation, police have charged a 27-year-old Bolton man with break and enter, mischief under $5,000 and possession of property obtained by crime. All of the property was recovered and the accused has a court date in September.

We have recently responded to break and enters in both Bradford and Innisfil. We encourage our residents to take proactive steps to help keep homes and cottages safe. Security cameras, lights on timers, having neighbours watch and calling in suspicious people in a timely manner would help prevent crime and apprehend thieves.
