A woman is facing charges and two men are being sought in connection with a break-in and theft at a downtown Guelph church.

Guelph police say they were called to the church last Wednesday after a church employee discovered several electronics had been stolen.

Investigators believe the suspects hid inside the church overnight and once it closed made their way to the backstage and sanctuary areas.

They say the trio were caught on surveillance video taking four large speakers, microphones, a digital camera and other electronics. The total value of the stolen equipment is over $7,600.

Investigators say they located and arrested the female suspect downtown Monday morning. The 23-year-old will be back in court June 14.

Investigators are still looking to identify and locate the two male suspects.
