The Ontario Provincial Police in Leamington is investigating a theft and looking for a red pickup truck in two separate incidents.

Police say the pickup hit a fence on Camelot Ave. and drove away westbound on Oak St. E around 4:15am Monday.

The pickup is a late 1990s or early 2000s model with damage on the passenger side of the vehicle and anyone with information can call the Leamington OPP detachment at 519-326-2544.

Meanwhile, a 37-year-old man is charged after employees at the Canadian Tire on Erie St. S spotted a customer leaving the store with a cordless drill, a flashlight and a drill bit set without paying for it.

The suspect was arrested soon after the theft Sunday and charged with theft under $5,000.
