A male already facing charges after breaking into a downtown church late last week was arrested again Monday after he was found inside a second church.

Police were called approximately 8:25 a.m. after staff arrived to find a male sleeping in the kitchen. He had smashed a window to get inside. A search of the male revealed he was in possession of some of the church’s property.

The same male had been arrested last Friday morning after staff of a second downtown church arrived to find him sleeping in a storage room. A 22-year-old Brantford male was charged at that time with break and enter and mischief.

On Monday he was charged with a second count of each of those as well as possessing stolen property.
