A 43-year-old man wanted by St. Thomas police since February on charges stemming from an incident in February has been arrested in Sarnia and brought back to face court.
Sarnia Police took the man into custody on Friday, May 29, 2026, acting on a first-instance warrant issued by the St. Thomas Police Service. He is charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, three counts of operation while prohibited, flight from a peace officer, and possession of property over $5,000.
St. Thomas police officers met their Sarnia counterparts to continue the arrest and transport the accused to STPS headquarters for a court appearance. The charges relate to an incident that happened in February, though police have not released details of the original event.
In a separate matter, St. Thomas police are investigating a series of overnight vehicle break-ins at a local automotive business. Staff arrived to find several vehicles had been rummaged through and called police right away. That investigation is ongoing.
