Investigations into two separate collisions have ended in charges for two people from Quebec.

Later, police attended a collision on Cemetery Side Road in Beckwith Township.

While investigating the collisions, officers found that both vehicles had been reported stolen.

Jason Schulze, 18, and a 15-year-old, both from Montreal, Que., were arrested and charged with the dangerous operation of a vehicle, possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000, obstructing a police officer and possessing an automobile master key.
