The Saskatoon Police Service has made an arrest in connection to a stolen vehicle investigation.

On March 14, 2023, at approximately 4:00 p.m., patrol officers located a vehicle, in the 100 block of 32nd Street West, with a license plate that had been reported stolen. As officers approached the vehicle they found two people inside. One of the occupants was taken into custody without further incident and released without charges.
