A 17-year-old from Magnetawan is facing a theft over $5000 charge after the OPP says he stole thousands of dollars in lottery tickets.
Back in February of this year, Almaguin Highlands OPP says officers responded to a theft of lottery tickets from a Magnetawan business. With the help from the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation, it was determined about $84,000 worth of tickets were taken from the business over a period of months.
The accused was released and is scheduled to appear in court in June.
