Some Barrie citizens were able to arrest a would-be thief even before the police. Neighbors at a Donald Street Address saw a 46 year old man trying to stealing from vehicles in the area. Instead of just calling the police and waiting inside their homes, the neighbors rallied together and performed a citizen’s arrest, holding the suspect until police arrived. Barrie Police then officially arrested the 47 year old for theft.
