Cobourg Police Service says around 1 p.m. officers responded to an unnamed church in the downtown core after being informed that a donation jar had allegedly been removed from the premises.
The investigation led to the identity of two suspects who were late located and arrested.

Munro was additionally charged with possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000; McCarthy was also charged with two counts of failure to comply with a probation order.
Police say both were released from custody and are scheduled to appear in court in Cobourg in March.
