Windsor Police have arrested a suspect after a break-in last month at a business on Tecumseh Road East.
Early the morning of September 11, a suspect forced his way inside the business on Tecumseh between Central Avenue and Meldrum Road. Once inside, police say the suspect took keys from an after-hours box and stole a 2017 Ford Fusion in the parking lot.
