A 39-year-old man was arrested after he allegedly took money from a donation box at a Sikh temple in Mississauga on Saturday night, police say.

Const. Tachel Gibbs tells CP24 that police were called to the Ontario Khalsa Darbar on Dixie Road near Derry Road at around 11:25 p.m. for a report that someone had stolen from a donation box at the temple.

Gibbs says that officers located the suspect inside the temple a short time after arriving on scene and took him into custody.

According to Gibbs, there were other people inside the temple at the time of the theft.

Gurwinder Sangha, of Brampton, is charged with theft under $5,000 and possession of break-and-enter instruments.

Sangha will appear in court on April 28.
