A Medicine Hat man has been arrested in connection with a dozen break-ins at Tim Hortons restaurants across Alberta and Saskatchewan in recent months, RCMP say.

Reports of break and enters were reported at 12 Tim Hortons Alberta locations, including in Brooks, High River, Hanna, Vermilion, Rocky Mountain House, Rocky View County, Strathmore, Drayton Valley, Didsbury, Stettler, and two in Wetaskiwin.

Locations in Maple Creek, Kindersley, Swift Current, Saskatoon and Indian Head were also hit, according to an RCMP news release that said all the crimes occurred between June and October of this year.

It took a five-month cross-jurisdictional effort by the RCMP Southern Alberta Crime Reduction Unit with assistance from the RCMP Regina General Investigation Section, the RCMP said in its Tuesday release.

During the investigation, RCMP learned the suspect was in White City, Sask.
