Kingston Police say a local 16-year-old is facing multiple charges after shoplifting from a west-end convenience store, and then returning and to the store to cause damage.
On Sunday just before 10 p.m., police say the teen entered a convenience store on Bath Road with several friends. According to police, the girl loaded her backpack with multiple items and left the store without paying.
