TORONTO – GTA homeowners who’ve been robbed in recent weeks might want to check out a Flickr page to get their stuff back.

York Regional Police have arrested two men in connection with a string of break-ins and are using the photo-sharing site to reunite homeowners with their stolen goods.

More than 250 items are pictured on the York police Flickr page, including high-end handbags, cameras and a bevy of cellphones.

Police launched Project Navigator on September 21, named for the Lincoln Navigator suspects used to flee after robbing a home in Richmond Hill. Police believed those suspects were responsible for six other break-and-enters in Toronto, Brampton, Mississauga and Hamilton.

Earlier this month, police issued arrest warrants for Wendell Antoine, Lance Herman and Jermaine Lyttleton. Antoine was arrested and found with some stolen property, and Herman turned himself in to police.

Both men face charges of break and enter and possession of stolen property. Herman is also charged with breach of probation.
