The truck had initially been reported stolen in Hamilton on Jan. 5.

Identified in a media release, the two each face five counts of theft under $5,000 and possession of stolen property.

The man is facing 14 additional charges related to the taking of the truck and tools, while the woman arrested with him is facing an additional break-and-enter charge.
