A Toronto police officer has been arrested and charged after he allegedly stole three bottles of alcohol from a store Friday, police say.

Police didn't say in the release whether he was on duty at the time or where exactly the alleged theft took place.
The officer, 39, has been charged with theft under $5,000 and suspended with pay, police said. He has 18 years of service, according to the release.
He's scheduled to appear in court in Toronto on Nov. 14, police said.
