Article content

A father and son from Brampton face a combined 116 charges following an investigation into LCBO thefts in Peel Region.

Peel Regional Police said in May, the 21 Division Community Intervention Response Team (CIRT) teamed with the LCBO Organized Crime Investigative Unit on an investigation into multiple allegations involving two male suspects targeting individuals and businesses along the Steeles Ave. corridor between Kennedy and Dixie Rds. in Brampton.

The investigation, dubbed Project Bloodline, culminated on Monday with the arrests of the suspects, 55-year-old Daniel Stuckey and his son, 32-year-old Dylan.

Daniel has been charged with 22 offences, including 11 counts of theft under $5,000 and seven counts of breach of probation.

Dylan is facing 94 charges including 21 counts of failure to comply with a release order and 48 counts of theft under $5,000.

Additionally, Dylan was wanted on four outstanding warrants in Peel, Halton and Niagara.

At the time of their arrest, both Dylan and Daniel were already charged with numerous offences and were also subject to multiple probation orders.

Both were held for bail hearings.

CIRT was established in May 2022 as a pilot in 22 Division to increase public engagement and have a visible police presence in communities.

“Our goal with community safety and wellbeing has always been to eliminate crime before it harms our communities and use practices that decrease re-offenses. With Project Bloodline, we have done exactly that,” Peel Deputy Chief Marc Andrews said in a news release.

Anyone with information is asked to call police at 905-453-2121, ext. 2133 or contact Peel Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or at peelcrimestoppers.ca.
