Halton Regional Police say they have disrupted a group believed to be responsible for the theft of at least 40 vehicles in Halton Region and the Greater Toronto Area worth over $3 million.
The investigation started in May after a stolen Toyota Tundra from Hamilton was recovered in a residential area in Burlington.
“Through surveillance and various investigative avenues, individuals were identified along with additional suspect vehicles,” Vandenbeukel said. “These individuals would frequently travel back and forth from Quebec to the GTA and often change locations of their short term rentals.” Police showed off the recovered “toy hauler RV” outside of police headquarters Wednesday. The RV resembles a normal camper on the outside, but the inside has been gutted – allegedly to allow a car to be driven inside and concealed for transport to a shipping port.
