Less than a week later, police received a second call indicating a man was attempting to steal a motor vehicle.

Police arrested a 31-year-old Maple man, and seized a vehicle.

Later that day, the Caledon Community Street Crime Unit (CSCU), with the assistance of the Dufferin OPP CSCU, executed a search warrant in both the vehicle and a home where evidence, including stolen property and currency, was allegedly located and seized.

A man from Maple faces several charges, including break-and-enter and theft-related offences.

He was held for a bail hearing in Orangeville.
