Police have arrested two Barrie residents suspected of stealing six poppy donation boxes since the weekend.

The pair allegedly stole a donation box from a Tim Hortons on Fairview Drive early Saturday morning and five more from variety stores since then.

Police reviewed security video of all of the robberies and said the footage showed the same man and woman committing the crimes.

Around 10 p.m. Tuesday, officers arrested a 38-year-old man and a 33-year-old woman in a parking lot near Mapleview Drive West and Essa Road, where the suspects had arranged to turn themselves in.

The woman was taken to hospital for an unrelated medical problem and released. She was charged with four counts of theft under $5,000.

The man was charged with three counts of theft under $5,000

Both were due in a Barrie court on Wednesday morning for a bail hearing.

Police said they expect to lay more charges.
