Manitouwadge OPP – Arrest made in Break-and-Enters

Members of the Manitouwadge Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have arrested and charged one individual in relation to several break-and-enters in the Manitouwadge area.

On September 7, 2023, shortly before 12:00 p.m., members of the Manitouwadge OPP Detachment received a report of a break and enter at two local businesses on Shebandowan Drive in Manitouwadge that occurred earlier that morning. An investigation into the incident was launched shortly after.
