Halton police say they have arrested three suspects, including a $1 million poker champion from Mississauga, in connection with a spree of break-ins in Mississauga, Hamilton, Oakville and Burlington.
Today, police said they arrested poker star Jordan Saccucci, 33, and Mississauga man Dumark Lindsay, 41, in Oakville on Dec. 5.
Earlier this week, police also announced they arrested another of the four outstanding suspects–36-year-old Brampton man Paul Nkrumah. According to police, he was arrested in Smithville. At the time of his arrest, he was allegedly in possession of a Jeep Cherokee that police say was stolen.
Police say the suspects arrested on Dec. 5 have each been charged with 68 break-and-enter-related offences.
All three suspects have been held in custody pending bail hearings in Milton.
Police also say officers recovered the Chevrolet Tahoe RST connected with the break-ins. Police allege it was located in Brampton with fake plates attached to it and determined to be stolen.
Hagersville man Marcel Blackburn, 37, is still wanted in connection with the incidents. Police say he’s known to frequent the GTA.
