Each vehicle was stolen in December and has since been recovered.

The man has since been charged with three counts of theft of a motor vehicle, four counts of possession of property obtained by crime, three counts of operating a motor vehicle while prohibited, and possession contrary to a probation order.

He remains in police custody, with his next court appearance on February 9.
