Saint John police say they have made an arrest in a stolen vehicle investigation.
Officers responded to a City Road address over the noon hour on Wednesday.
“The vehicle had allegedly been stolen from a parking lot while the owner was at work,” police said in a news release on Thursday.
Around 9:45 p.m. Wednesday, an officer patrol spotted the vehicle in an underground parking lot on Prince Edward Street.
“A 46-year-old man was found asleep inside the vehicle and he was arrested for theft of a motor vehicle,” police said in the release.
The accused was later released from custody and has a court date in late September.
