Police pounce on suspected pillow case bandits

Police have made three arrests after a series of residential break-ins in Milton and Georgetown.

The suspects – all in their 20s – were arrested in Brampton earlier this month for their alleged involvement in a total of 23 break-ins between September 5th and November 7th. The men were dubbed “the pillow case bandits,” because along with cash, electronics and jewelry, they would also steal pillow cases to stash their goods.

Police recovered most of the stolen goods following searches at the suspects’ homes, and at a plaza.
