An off-duty security guard is being credited with helping to thwart a trio of alleged butter thieves in Owen Sound.
A loss prevention officer saw three men stealing several containers of ghee at a grocery store and after they left in a car, he saw them again and called police who arrested three men, two from Brampton and another from Caledon.
Police also recovered more than $1,000 worth of butter and $300 worth of ghee, which is an Indian type of butter.
