Halton police have taken four individuals into custody and filed numerous charges after looking into a home invasion that occurred in Oakville this past February.
According to officers, around 10 a. m. on Feb. 24, three masked suspects and one with a hammer forced their way into a residence on Settlers Road in Oakville.
The intruders reportedly confronted a woman inside the house and locked her in a closet while they took various items, including designer clothing valued at over $70,000.
