Barrie Police say they have arrested a 32-year-old man in connection with the theft of 20 batteries from St. Onge Recreation.
The Barrie man is charged with theft under $5,000 and is scheduled to appear in court next month.
Police say they are still on the hunt for a second suspect.
“We did have video surveillance of two males that entered the premise,” said Const. Nicole Rodgers.
“There is still one man outstanding.”
The thieves sold the batteries for $279, a fraction of their $2500 value.
The second suspect is described as having a dark complexion, medium length black hair in a ponytail, and a black beard.
Police would like anyone with information to contact them.
