Police say they are still trying to recover many of the stolen items, which include First World War and Second World War memorabilia, a wheelchair and clothing.

They say two people entered the legion on Wednesday afternoon and took off with the items.

Police say the suspects were identified with help from community members and surveillance footage.

A 32-year-old woman and a 34-year-old man from Gravenhurst have been charged with theft over $5,000.

Police say the suspects will appear in court next month and in January, and are asking anyone with information about the stolen items to contact Bracebridge OPP.
