The Society, which owns and looks after the historic roundhouse posted a number of photos on its Facebook site hoping that someone would be able to identify those possibly involved.

 Since then the police have made progress in the investigation to identify the five people pictured in the surveillance footage. Corporal Kevin Charles explains they have some suspects they are talking to, and the hope to resolve the case sooner rather than later.

The Roundhouse Society has since posted on its Facebook page that there is a warrant to arrest three of the five people alleged to have broken into the historic resource. According to its posts, this is the fourth break in to the Roundhouse since August of 2015 and the first this year. 

Corporal Charles says the investigation is ongoing.
