Police picked up the 21-year old in Markham, after robberies at 2 stores in Niagara last fall

Police have arrested a 21-year old man wanted for two jewellery store robberies in Niagara.

They both happened late in the day on November 27th, when a man walked into Kavar Jewellers in the Pen Centre, and asked to see some jewellery.

When he was shown it, he stole some and ran.

Not long after police say the same person robbed Tianna's Jewellery at the Seaway Mall, in the same fashion.

Working alongside Stratford, Waterloo, Hamilton and York police, the NRP searched a home in Markham yesterday, and arrested Diego Dini.

He had a bail hearing yesterday, but, remains in police custody.
