An arrest has been made in connection to a liquor store theft in Chatham.
According to Chatham-Kent Police, a man went into the Wellington Street LCBO on June 24th, removed a bottle of liquor from the shelves, stashed it in his backpack, and left without making any attempt to pay.
Authorities say the same man allegedly stole another bottle the following day.
Video surveillance helped to identify a suspect, and on Saturday, the accused was found near Lacroix Street and Grand Avenue West.
The 27-year-old Chatham man was arrested without incident and is now charged with two counts each of theft under $5000, possession of stolen property, and failing to comply with a release order. He was held in custody for a bail hearing.
