Police say they’ve recovered more than $30,000 in stolen property following an investigation in Niagara Falls.
Two men are facing a combined total of 40 criminal charges in connection with a series of break-and-enters into storage units in Niagara Falls.
Police say 20 people had items stolen from two storage unit locations.
Detectives recovered and returned more than $10,000 worth of stolen property back to the victims, however, the remaining property is “still outstanding.”
