An RCMP investigation looking into the fraudulent registration of vehicles has uncovered two stolen cars in Edmonton that police say had altered VIN numbers.
A VIN number is a unique set of characters that identifies a vehicle.
The RCMP investigation began in February.
On Wednesday, RCMP executed a search warrant at a home in Edmonton and seized two stolen vehicles with altered VIN numbers, vehicle key programmers and over $7,000 in counterfeit currency.
David Joseph Wood is facing several charges, including possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000 and two counts of altering a vehicle identification number.
Wood is scheduled to appear in court in Edmonton on March 14.
