A woman faces two counts of theft after Sidney/North Saanich RCMP arrested her last week.
The arrest happened after police received a complaint on June 17 from a Beacon Avenue business about a woman who had stolen items from the store.
Cpl. Carrie Harding said in a news release that police located and arrested a woman in possession of various stolen items. Police later determined that the woman had also stolen items from another business on Beacon Avenue.
Harding said the suspect was not resident of Sidney. Police released her with the condition to stay out of Sidney.
