Two Charged After $86K Commercial Coffee Machine Theft in Mississauga
Region of Peel – Investigators with the 12 Division Criminal Investigations Bureau (CIB) have charged two Mississauga men and recovered the majority of nearly $86,000 in stolen property following a commercial break-and-enter investigation.
On Saturday, July 11, at approximately 6:40 a.m., officers responded to a break-and-enter at a commercial building in Mississauga. Investigators determined that nine high-end commercial coffee machines, valued at approximately $85,955, had been stolen.
During the investigation, officers learned the stolen machines had been listed for sale through an online marketplace. Investigators identified two suspects and, on Sunday, Nov. 1, executed a search warrant at a residence near Bloor Street and Fieldgate Drive in Mississauga.
As a result of the search warrant, officers recovered six of the nine stolen coffee machines. Investigators believe the remaining three machines had been sold online before police executed the warrant.
Cezary Szuc, 45 and Leslie Ayotte, 57, both of Mississauga, have each been charged with:
- · Possession of Property Obtained by Crime
Both accused were released on undertakings and are scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice at a later date.
