Two charged after weekend break-in in Kingsville

Ontario Provincial Police have arrested two people after a break-and-enter over the weekend.

Officers from the Kingsville and Leamington detachments were called shortly before 7:30 a.m. Sunday to a business on Albuna Townline near Mersea Road 5 in Kingsville.

Constable Steven Duguay said two men were found nearby and as a result of the investigation, were arrested.

A 46-year-old man from Essex and a 55-year-old man from Leamington are both charged with break-and-enter to commit an offence. Also, the Essex man was charged with possession of break-in instruments, two counts of possession of a prohibited or restricted weapon at an unauthorized place, and carrying a concealed weapon.

The pair will have a chance to respond to the charges in a Windsor court at a later date.

The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information to share should call the OPP at 1-888-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers.
