Ottawa police are noting a developing trend in the types of vehicles that are being targeted by thieves in the capital.
According to statistics provided to CTV News Ottawa, there were 96 confirmed vehicle thefts in June and police are noticing two models in particular.
Ottawa Police Chief Eric Stubbs said this week that Ottawa's proximity to Montreal makes it an appealing destination for criminals hoping to ship cars overseas, but frontline patrols are becoming more successful in stopping thieves before cars get to the port. A B.C. man who was hired to help a non-profit build a food hub but instead spent the money on personal expenses – including travel, restaurants, booze and cannabis – has been ordered to pay more than $120,000 in damages.Two people are dead and two others suffered serious injuries following a shooting that police have described as a 'gun battle' outside a plaza in Scarborough, Ont. early Wednesday morning.The Shopping Trends team is independent of the journalists at CTV News.
