BRACEBRIDGE — Another man has been charged twice in the same day — 12 hours apart — this time in Bracebridge, where he will appear in court a week apart on the two separate theft and drug charges.
Dean Mann, 36, was charged with theft from the Home Depot just before 9 a.m. yesterday and at 9 p.m. last night he was charged with impaired by drug after crashing into rock cut in Muskoka Lakes Township.
Police say that on Tuesday, Aug. 25, officers began two independent investigations involving the Bracebridge resident.
At 8:40 a.m. an employee from Home Depot called police to report a theft from the store and was able to provide the necessary information that resulted in the arrest of the two men believed responsible.
Police charged Mann and 34-year-old Daniel Theoret, also of Bracebridge, each with Theft Under $5,000 CC 334(b).
Mann and Theoret are to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice in Bracebridge Oct. 27, 2020.
Later that night a 911 call came in about a single vehicle collision on Falkenburg Road, where a vehicle left the roadway and struck a rock cut.
Officers arrived and after an investigation arrested and charged Mann with Operation while Impaired by Drug CC 320.14(1)(a).
He is to appear in the Ontario Court of Justice in Bracebridge Nov. 3, 2020, on that charge.
This comes after a Gravenhurst man was also charged twice in the same day over a theft of butane cylinders from the Canadian Tire and a separate investigation involving thefts from parked vehicles.
