The Orillia detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is investigating a break and enter where seven guns were stolen from a residence in the City of Orillia.  

On Nov. 26, 2020, officers received a report that a residence on Barrie Road had been broken into and that a gun safe containing seven guns, including three handguns and four long guns, had been stolen.  The safe was a large green gun safe which would have been difficult to carry and transport.  It was determined that the residence had been unoccupied between 5:30 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. and that the theft must have occurred during that time frame.
