A Guelph male faces charges after he was observed driving a stolen box truck.

Approximately 1:15 a.m. Thursday, a male was stopped while driving a 2007 Ford box truck. The male was identified and sent on his way. Later that morning, the owner of a business on Elizabeth Street reported the truck had been stolen overnight.
