A Toronto man is facing charges in the theft of jewelry from a home in Shelburne, Ont.

Police in the town about 100 kilometres northwest of Toronto say a man reported the theft of approximately $12,600 in custom gold jewelry from his home earlier this month.

Investigators say the theft occurred in late February.

Shelburne police say they were able to identify a suspect, but he wasn't located until Peel regional police arrested him on Thursday.

Police say the 24-year-old suspect has been returned to Shelburne and is charged with theft over $5,000 and possession of property obtained by crime.

He is to appear in court in Orangeville, Ont., in mid-April.
