Following a lengthy police investigation into thefts within fitness locations, DRPS fraud investigators have arrested a 43-year-old male.

On Thursday September 2, 2010, DRPS fraud investigators from the Central West Division arrested the accused without incident as he exited a fitness facility located in Pickering. The accused had been entering various fitness facilities throughout Durham Region in 2009 and stealing credit cards or cash.

The stolen credit cards had been removed from locker rooms within the fitness locations and used in big box stores and upscale clothing retail locations. Store surveillance video assisted investigators in determining the accused to be the same suspect in each instance.
