Police say a crackdown on retail theft at a Surrey mall has led to 26 arrests.
Surrey R-C-M-P say they partnered with Metro Vancouver Transit Police and Delta Police for the co-ordinated operation on May 25.
They say more than $5,000 in stolen goods -- including food, clothing, electronics and cosmetics -- was recovered at the Guildford Town Centre that day.
The Mounties say the people they arrested ranged from teenagers to people in their forties, and 15 charges were recommended to the prosecution service.
