Another great result on the coast

Last night, officers responded to a report from a resident in the Scarborough area about their vehicle being stolen from their driveway.

A short time later, local officers spotted the vehicle being driven away from Scarborough.

After noticing our presence, the driver sped off, colliding with a parked car in the process.

Although the car was lost from sight, our officers remained determined and relocated it abandoned on Main Street.

A 29-year-old man from Scarborough was found nearby in possession of a balaclava, Xanax, cannabis, and an On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) device.

He was arrested on suspicion of theft of a motor vehicle; going equipped for theft; dangerous driving; and possession of Class B and Class C drugs.

Once in custody, he was also further arrested for cultivating a Class B drug after a cannabis grow was located at a property earlier this month.

He remains in custody for questioning.

Brilliant teamwork and persistence from everyone involved.
