South Simcoe Police cruiser
A vehicle stolen from Sudbury was recovered by the South Simcoe Police Service in Bradford West Gwillimbury (BWG).
On Wednesday, September 10th, at roughly 1:09 p.m., officers received a report of a stolen vehicle in the area of County Road 88 in BWG.
The vehicle, a grey 2018 Mercedes MS6, had been reported stolen earlier that morning from Sudbury. The vehicle contained a pair of Apple AirPods, which allowed the owner to track the vehicle’s location in real-time and provide updates to police. Based on information provided by the owner, officers located the vehicle parked near Line 9 in Bradford. Officers observed a male seated in the driver’s seat and appeared to be sleeping. Through investigation, police determined that the vehicle had been stolen, and the suspect was wanted on a warrant issued in New Brunswick.
As a result, an 18-year-old man from Moncton, New Brunswick was arrested and charged with three offences under the Criminal Code of Canada:
- Motor Vehicle Theft
- Possession of Stolen Goods over $5000
- Fail to Comply with Judicial Release Order
The accused was held pending a bail hearing for a future court date.
