The man exited the parked vehicle and went inside. Officers checked the vehicle identification number and confirmed it was reported stolen.

When the man returned to the vehicle he used a key fob to open it and that was when officers came in to make the arrest without incident.

There was a small amount of suspected crystal meth and stolen property, including identification in other people’s names, found inside the vehicle.

A 25-year-old from Guelph is facing a number of charges and was held for a bail hearing.
