Thanks to information from a number of units within the police service, officers were able to launch a joint investigation into the activity.

As a result of the investigation, officers say they arrested two 29-year-old London men in connection with the case. The suspects face a combined 18 charges including break and enter and possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000.

The men will appear in separate court hearings early in February to answer to the charges.
