A suspect on the run from Toronto Police has been arrested and charged with eight counts of making false fire alarms and eight counts of mischief that allegedly took place in the Humber Bay area.

Police accused the suspect of committing as many as 10 Break and Entries in the last 14-months in the Lake Shore Blvd. W., and Parklawn Road area.

Police in a news release said the crimes occurred from August 6, 2020 to October 15, 2021.

Detectives allege the man, who roamed the area topless, broke into a commercial building by smashing a window.

“Once inside he caused extensive damage to the building and personal property,” according to police. “He turned the water on flooding a unit overnight.”

The suspect entered a number of high-rise condo buildings committing crimes, officers say.

Investigators believe the same man is responsible for the incidents.

Milton Garcia-Perez, 41, of no fixed address, has been charged with break and enter, eight counts of mischief under $5,000, eight counts of false fire alarm and mischief over $5,000.

He appeared at a Finch A. W. court on October 19.
