Nine ‘outlaw’ bikers charged with breaking into bank machine in Ontario

WALLBRIDGE TOWNSHIP, Ont. – Ontario Provincial Police say nine people they describe as “outlaw motorcycle gang members” are facing charges following an incident in Ontario’s cottage country.

Seven people from Regina, one from Sudbury, Ont., and one from Coniston, Ont., are each charged with mischief over $5,000 and theft over $5,000.

The nine accused — Ronald Baker, 51, Matthew Bossenberry, 28, Adam Hannant, 23, Celeste Hannant, 44, Mark Hannant, 47, Riley Michalicz, 25, Kelly Powell, 29, all of Regina, George Murphy, 46, of Sudbury, and Antonio Rinandi, 50, of Coniston — are to appear in court in Parry Sound.

Police say the investigation included the two OPP detachments, the OPP biker enforcement unit and the Anishinabek Police Service and is ongoing.
