A Peterborough man has been arrested and charged with mischief after damage was caused to a Princess Street retirement home early Sunday.

Peterborough Police Service says around 3:30 a.m., officers were called to a retirement residence on Princess Street for a reported disturbance.

Investigators say a man allegedly attempted to gain entrance into the home but staff denied him access. The suspect then kicked out one of the windows of the door.
