A 35-year-old man from Tracadie, N.B. is facing charges after money was stolen from a business in the community.
On Jan. 8, police received a report of a break-and-enter at a business on Rue Du Moulin.

- break, enter and theft with intent to commit an indictable offence
- disguise with intent
- mischief
- unlawful possession of illicit cannabis
- unlawful cultivation, propagation or harvest of more than four cannabis plants
- unlawful possession of cannabis for the purpose of selling
Brideau was later released on conditions and is scheduled to return to Tracadie Provincial Court on Feb. 8.
The investigation is ongoing.
