A 27-year-old Kitchener man has been charged with arson in connection with a fire at a bakery in Vaughan more than three months ago.
Fire crews were called to a blaze at Di Manno Bakery on Buttermill Avenue at around 1:30 a.m. on June 12.
According to York Regional Police, officers could see that one of the storefront windows had been broken and it appeared as if a can of accelerant had been thrown through it.
Police said a thorough investigation led to the identification of a suspect, who was later arrested with the assistance of Waterloo police.
