A man who was wanted by Waterloo Regional Police has been arrested in Brantford.

Just before the new year, the Waterloo Regional Police Service (WRPS) released a photo of Adam De-Gannes as he was wanted for multiple alleged crimes, including two robberies.

On Mar. 20, WRPS confirmed the 29-year-old Cambridge man was arrested by officers with the Brantford Police Service (BPS) as part of an unrelated investigation.

Investigators in Waterloo Region have now charged De-Gannes with several offences including assault, robbery, and weapon possession.

De-Gannes was also sentenced to jail time in 2020 after pleading guilty to manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Bradley Pogue in Cambridge in 2018.
