Members of the Frontenac Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) are investigating thefts from vehicles and a home in the Battersea area of South Frontenac Township. 

The investigation started on January 4, 2020 when a resident of Battersea Road reported that their home had been entered and their mini-van taken from the driveway. The vehicle was found a short time later on Sunbury Road. A purse, clothing, gift cards, cash and other items taken from the home were not recovered. The investigation led to numerous other incidents in the area where locked and unlocked vehicles were entered. In many cases nothing was taken, while in other cases loose change and other items were removed.

The incidents are believed to be connected. The OPP advises everyone to ensure homes and vehicles are locked at all times and people should not leave any valuables in parked cars, even in your driveway.

This investigation is continuing. If you have any information, please call the Frontenac OPP at 1-888-310-1122.
