Peterborough police are investigating an alleged break and enter at a hair salon that was closed due to a building fire last week.

On April 30, a fire broke out at a Hunter Street building that houses apartments and businesses.

One person was transported to a Toronto-area hospital with critical injuries.

Police determined the fire was non-suspicious in nature, but its cause remains under investigation. The building in East City was temporarily closed.

However, police say that sometime between May 1 and May 7, an unknown person or people broke into a hair salon on the building’s lower floor. Several items, including an undisclosed amount of cash, were reported stolen, according to police.
