London police say one man has been arrested and another remains at large following a New Year’s Day break-and-enter at an LCBO in the city’s east-end.

It was around 6:20 a.m. on Jan. 1 when police responded to reports of a vehicle that had smashed into front-end of the LCBO in Arygle Mall, near Dundas Street and Clarke Road.

When officers arrived, no suspects were found.

While only a handful of items were stolen, police say the crash left about $100,000 in damage.
