A lucky find for the owner of a stolen car - spotting his vehicle parked in the driveway of a home at Wangi Wangi on Thursday night.
Police say the owner noticed someone working on his Mitsubishi Triton in Dobell Drive at about 6.00pm and approached the man.
As this was happening, an off-duty police officer was driving past and saw the altercation developing. He spoke to the resident and tried to calm him down.
Police say the alleged offender then tried to get away on a motor bike which was also stolen, but he was apprehended as other officers arrived.
The 26-year-old man has been charged with 5 offences including taken and drive conveyance without consent and has been refused bail to face Toronto Local Court today ( Friday 8 May 2020).
