Police say the group struck at 50 LCBO locations across various jurisdictions between August of 2024 and February of this year.

To date, approximately $237,738.95 worth of products were stolen,” according to police.

As a result of the investigation, five Brampton-area men have been arrested and charged with theft over $5,000, while three of them have received additional charges:

Prabhpreet Singh, 29-year-old man
