Officers are investigating vehicle thefts from car dealerships that reportedly took place in central Ontario, including one incident in Collingwood, OPP say.

In the two reported incidents, including the one in Collingwood, the suspect attended the dealership requesting a test drive of a high-end pickup truck, police say.

The suspect then presented false identification to the salesperson prior to the test drive, police say, before driving the vehicle out of the dealership’s parking lot and never returning.
