DURHAM -- More than 100 charges have been laid against two men after an investigation into numerous commercial break-ins across Durham Region.
Working in the early morning hours thieves removed or smashed glass doors in stores then grabbed money, cigarettes and electronics, Durham police said. An investigation that began in Whitby led cops to connect at least 30 break-ins in the region between July and October of this year.
Police have laid 112 charges, including break and enter, possession of stolen property and possession of break-in tools against Shawn Daigle, 30, and 23-year-old Robert Kearn, both of Houghton Court in Whitby.
