A Waterloo man faces numerous charges after a break and enter spree at local businesses, leading up to Christmas Day.

Regional Police started investigating a few weeks ago after nine separate businesses were broken into through Kitchener and Waterloo.

Police say they all happened between December 20 and 25th, and items including small electronics and tools were stolen.

On Wednesday, investigators arrested a 33-year-old man in the Parkside Drive area.

He’s been charged with nine counts of break and enter, and two counts of possession of stolen property.
