On March 6, officers with the Community F.I.R.S.T Unit were called to a store in the King Street and Bethune Street area after a woman walked into the store, selected some items and left without paying. Officers arrived in the area and located a woman matching the description given to police.

Officers were also aware the woman was wanted on warrants for theft under $5,000, failing to comply with probation and failing to comply with an undertaking. They further learned the woman was wanted in connection with two incidents reported to police; one earlier that day in which bakery items were stolen and another at an LCBO.

As a result of the investigation, a 31-year-old Peterborough woman was arrested on the strength of the warrants and in total is facing:

  • Theft Under $5,000 X8

  • Fail to Comply with Probation X16

  • Fail to Comply with Undertaking X2

The accused is currently bound by two probation orders with the following condition: to keep the peace and be of good behaviour. 

She is also bound by an undertaking to not attend certain stores. 

The accused was held in custody and appeared in Weekend and Statutory Holiday (WASH) court on March 7.
