Police are investigating three vehicle thefts reported over the weekend, including a classic car and another stolen while the owner visited a cemetery.
Friday evening police were called to a west-end business. The complainant advised he parked his red 1977 Chevy El Camino at his workplace September 29 before heading out for his trucking route, and returned Friday to find the vehicle gone.
Sunday afternoon police were called to Woodlawn Memorial Park. A Guelph man reported he was visiting his wife’s grave and afterwards noticed his grey 2007 Kia Magentis had been stolen. Another visitor to the cemetery reported she saw a male get into the vehicle and drive it away. He was described as a white male in his 20s, tall with a heavy build and short black hair and wearing a yellow sweatshirt and a black satchel bag over his shoulder.
Just after 1:30 a.m. Sunday, a resident near Carrington Drive and Lovett Lane reported his blue 2023 Toyota Tundra pickup had just been stolen from his driveway after the passenger-side window was smashed. An earlier attempt had been made September 11 to steal the same vehicle.
Anyone with information is asked to call police at 519-824-1212.
